G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 7 (EC 2.7.11.14, GRK7, cone opsin kinase, iodopsin kinase) is a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase involved in phototransduction. This enzyme catalyses the phosphorylation of cone (color) photopsins in retinal cones during high acuity color vision primarily in the fovea.
