| Function | A light-sensitive calcium channel that is required for inositide-mediated Ca(2+) entry in the retina during phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated phototransduction (By similarity). Forms a regulated cation channel when heteromultimerized with trpl. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10896160}. |
| Subcellular Location | Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed predominantly in the rhabdomeres of photoreceptor cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10896160}. |
