IMPG1

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: IMPG1
  • Official Name: interphotoreceptor matrix proteoglycan 1
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 3617
  • UniProt: Q17R60
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is a major component of the retinal interphotoreceptor matrix. The encoded protein is a proteoglycan that is thought to play a role in maintaining viability of photoreceptor cells and in adhesion of the neural retina to the retinal pigment epithelium. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013].
  • UniProt Summary: May interact with hyaluronan which may serve to form a basic macromolecular scaffold comprising the insoluble interphotoreceptor matrix. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9813076}.
