Gene data

GRK1
Name
G protein-coupled receptor kinase 1
Type
protein-coding
Chromosome
HSCHR13_1_CTG5
Aliases
GPRK1, RHOK, RK

This gene encodes a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. The protein phosphorylates rhodopsin and initiates its deactivation. Defects in GRK1 are known to cause Oguchi disease 2 (also known as stationary night blindness Oguchi type-2).
