Literature associating GRK1 and Leber congenital amaurosis 10

GRK1 [ENSP00000334876]

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 1; Retina-specific kinase involved in the signal turnoff via phosphorylation of rhodopsin (RHO), the G protein- coupled receptor that initiates the phototransduction cascade. This rapid desensitization is essential for scotopic vision and permits rapid adaptation to changes in illumination; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GPRK subfamily.

The disease-gene associations are derived from automatic text mining of the biomedical literature, manually curated database annotations, cancer mutation data, and genome-wide association studies. The confidence of each association is signified by stars, where ★★★★★ is the highest confidence and ★☆☆☆☆ is the lowest.
