CG5958 - uncharacterized protein

Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate binding activity and retinal binding activity. Predicted to be involved in response to light stimulus. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; adult heart; amnioserosa; embryonic/larval hemocyte; and visceral mesoderm derivative. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Bothnia retinal dystrophy; Newfoundland cone-rod dystrophy; fundus albipunctatus; night blindness; and retinitis pigmentosa. Orthologous to several human genes including TTPAL (alpha tocopherol transfer protein like). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
