Summary: Predicted to enable dopachrome isomerase activity. Predicted to be involved in developmental pigmentation; generation of neurons; and melanin biosynthetic process from tyrosine. Predicted to act upstream of or within melanin biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in melanosome membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in melanosome. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; female organism; immature eye; integument; and neural crest.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
