Summary
OPN1MW3 (opsin 1, medium wave sensitive 3, HGNC:51831) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq28, encoding Medium-wave-sensitive opsin 3 (P0DN78). Visual pigments are the light-absorbing molecules that mediate vision.
Enables identical protein binding activity and photoreceptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cytokinesis. Located in plasma membrane.
