Pde6g Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable spectrin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of MAPK cascade; and positive regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in photoreceptor outer segment membrane. Is expressed in eye and retina outer nuclear layer. Used to study retinitis pigmentosa. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 57. Orthologous to human PDE6G (phosphodiesterase 6G). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Pde6g often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
