"Pikachurin interaction with dystroglycan is diminished by defective O-mannosyl glycosylation in congenital muscular dystrophy models and rescued by LARGE overexpression". Neurosci. Lett. 489 (1): 10–5. http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q63HQ2.

== Function ==Has a Dual function of photoreceptor visual synapse formation and visual perception

== Disease ==Visual Impairments were seen in mice with deleted pikachurin gene. Congenital muscular dystrophies (CMD) such as muscle-eye-brain disease caused by defective glycosylation of α-dystroglycan (α-DG) exhibit defective photoreceptor synaptic function.
