Description
Predicted to have inward rectifier potassium channel activity. Involved in establishment of pigment granule localization; melanocyte differentiation; and melanocyte migration. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis 16 and snowflake vitreoretinal degeneration. Is expressed in brain; caudal fin; eye; gonad; and integument. Orthologous to human KCNJ13 (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 13).
