Facts about Retinal rod rhodopsin-sensitive cGMP 3',5'-cyclic phosphodiesterase subunit delta.
Required for normal ciliary targeting of farnesylated target proteins, such as INPP5E (PubMed:24166846). Modulates the subcellular location of target proteins by acting as a GTP specific dissociation inhibitor (GDI) (By similarity).
