Cytoplasmic expression in photoreceptor cells. Additional expression in flagella in testis and in cilia in fallopian tube, endometrial glands and respiratory epithelia.
ANTIBODY IHC RELIABILITY
Data reliability description
No internal RNA expression data available for correlation. External characterization data supports antibody staining but no internal RNA data available for correlation.
Few cases of liver cancer and two cases of breast displayed moderate to strong cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Additional membranous staining was observed in a case of colorectal and ovarian cancer. Remaining cancer tissues were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
RPGRIP1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CORD13, LCA6, RGI1, RPGRIP
Description
Retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator interacting protein 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a photoreceptor protein that interacts with retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator protein and is a key component of cone and rod photoreceptor cells. Mutations in this gene lead to autosomal recessive congenital blindness. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
