background:
Retinitis pigmentosa 1 is a novel 2,156 amino acid oxygen-regulated photoreceptor specific to retina. Originally named ORP1 (for 'oxygen-regulated protein-1'), the expression of retinitis pigmentosa 1 has been found to be regulated by oxygen levels in the retina. Mutation of the retinitis pigmentosa 1 gene causes dominant retinitis pigmentosa which leads to degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells and symptoms such as night vision blindness and deficits in the midperipheral visual field. Retinitis pigmentosa 1 may assist in differentiation of photoreceptor cells and has been identified in the cilia of photoreceptors, possibly aiding in both cilial structure and protein transport between inner and outer segments of photoreceptors. Retinitis pigmentosa 1 contains two doublecortin domains and is encoded by a gene which maps to human chromosome 8q11-q13.

Function:
Microtubule-associated protein regulating the stability and length of the microtubule-based axoneme of photoreceptors. Required for the differentiation of photoreceptor cells, it plays a role in the organization of the outer segment of rod and cone photoreceptors ensuring the correct orientation and higher order stacking of outer segment disks along the photoreceptor axoneme.

Subunit:
Interacts (via the doublecortin domains) with microtubules. Interacts with RP1L1 (By similarity). Interacts with MAK (By similarity).

Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm; cytoskeleton; cilium axoneme. Cell projection; cilium; photoreceptor outer segment. Specifically localized in the connecting cilia of rod and cone photoreceptors.

Tissue Specificity:
Expressed in retina. Not expressed in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, spleen and pancreas.

DISEASE:
Defects in RP1 are the cause of retinitis pigmentosa type 1 (RP1) [MIM:36100]. RP leads to degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. As their condition progresses, they lose their far peripheral visual field and eventually central vision as well.

Similarity:
Contains 2 doublecortin domains.
