Transmembrane 4 L6 family member 5; Acts as a lysosomal membrane arginine sensor. Forms a complex with MTOR and SLC38A9 on lysosomal membranes in an arginine-regulated manner, leading to arginine efflux which enables the activation of mTORC1 which subsequently leads to RPS6KB1 and EIF4EBP1 phosphorylations. Facilitates cell cycle G1/S phase progression and the translocation of the CDK4- CCND1 complex into the nucleus. CDKN1B and RHOA/ROCK signaling activity are involved in TM4SF5-mediated acceleration of G1/S phase progression ; Belongs to the L6 tetraspanin family.

Retinal-specific phospholipid-transporting ATPase ABCA4; Catalyzes the translocation of specific phospholipids from the extracellular/lumenal to the cytoplasmic leaflet of membrane coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP. Transports preferentially phosphatidylethanolamine. In the visual cycle, acts as an inward-directed retinoid flipase, retinoid substrates imported by ABCA4 from the extracellular or intradiscal (rod) membrane surfaces to the cytoplasmic membrane surface are all- trans-retinaldehyde (ATR) and N-retinyl-phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (NR- PE). Once transported to the cytoplasmic su [...]

X-linked retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator-interacting protein 1; May function as scaffolding protein. Required for normal location of RPGR at the connecting cilium of photoreceptor cells. Required for normal disk morphogenesis and disk organization in the outer segment of photoreceptor cells and for survival of photoreceptor cells; Belongs to the RPGRIP1 family.

Retinal guanylyl cyclase 1; Catalyzes the synthesis of cyclic GMP (cGMP) in rods and cones of photoreceptors. Plays an essential role in phototransduction, by mediating cGMP replenishment. May also participate in the trafficking of membrane-asociated proteins to the photoreceptor outer segment membrane (By similarity). Belongs to the adenylyl cyclase class-4/guanylyl cyclase family.

Aryl-hydrocarbon-interacting protein-like 1; May be important in protein trafficking and/or protein folding and stabilization.

Multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase 1; Acts as a phosphoinositide 5- and phosphoinositide 6- phosphatase and regulates cellular levels of inositol pentakisphosphate (InsP5) and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6). Also acts as a 2,3- bisphosphoglycerate 3-phosphatase, by mediating the dephosphorylation of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) to produce phospho-D-glycerate without formation of 3-phosphoglycerate. May play a role in bone development (endochondral ossification). May play a role in the transition of chondrocytes from proliferation to hypertrophy (By similarity); Belongs [...]

Retina and anterior neural fold homeobox protein 2; May be involved in modulating the expression of photoreceptor specific genes. Binds to the Ret-1 and Bat-1 element within the rhodopsin promoter.

Membrane-associated phosphatidylinositol transfer protein 3; Catalyzes the transfer of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine between membranes (in vitro) (By similarity). Binds calcium ions; Belongs to the PtdIns transfer protein family. PI transfer class IIA subfamily.

Ceramide kinase-like protein; Has no detectable ceramide-kinase activity. Overexpression of CERKL protects cells from apoptosis in oxidative stress conditions.
