- 其他名称：
- GPR143;OA1;G-protein coupled receptor 143;Ocular albinism type 1 protein
- 背景：
- This gene encodes a protein that binds to heterotrimeric G proteins and is targeted to melanosomes in pigment cells. This protein is thought to be involved in intracellular signal transduction mechanisms. Mutations in this gene cause ocular albinism type 1, also referred to as Nettleship-Falls type ocular albinism, a severe visual disorder. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome Y.

- 功能：
- disease:Defects in GPR143 are the cause of ocular albinism type 1 (OA1) [MIM:300500]; also known as Nettleship-Falls type ocular albinism. OA1 is an X-linked disorder characterized by severe impairment of visual acuity, retinal hypopigmentation and the presence of macromelanosomes.,function:Not known; binds heterotrimeric G proteins.,online information:GPR143 mutations,online information:Retina International's Scientific Newsletter,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor OA family.,subcellular location:Targeted to intracellular organelles, namely the melanosomes in pigment cells.,tissue specificity:Exclusively expressed in pigment cells.,
- 细胞定位：
- Melanosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Lysosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Apical cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Distributed throughout the endo-melanosomal system but most of endogenous protein is localized in unpigmented stage II melanosomes. Its expression on the apical cell membrane is sensitive to tyrosine (PubMed:18828673). .
- 组织表达：
- Expressed at high levels in the retina, including the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and in melanocytes. Weak expression is observed in brain and adrenal gland.
