Subcellular location [CC]Cell projection, cilium, photoreceptor outer segment {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50149}. Photoreceptor inner segment {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50149}. Note=Localizes mainly in the outer segment in the dark-adapted state, whereas is translocated to the inner part of the photoreceptors in the light-adapted state. During dark-adapted conditions, in the presence of UNC119 mislocalizes from the outer segment to the inner part of rod photoreceptors which leads to decreased photoreceptor damage caused by light. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50149}.
