PDB 2D8N  (X-ray  2.20A 
DBSNP NA 
Subcellular location [CC]Photoreceptor inner segment {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P34057}. Cell projection, cilium, photoreceptor outer segment {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P34057}. Photoreceptor outer segment membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21457};
Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21457};
Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21457}. Perikaryon {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P34057}. Note=Primarily expressed in the inner segments of light-adapted rod photoreceptors, approximately 10% of which translocates from photoreceptor outer segments upon light stimulation (By similarity). Targeting of myristoylated protein to rod photoreceptor outer segments is calcium dependent (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21457, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P34057}.
