Docosahexaenoic acid is a major and important retinal fatty acid that is recruited and retained in the photoreceptor membrane via an unknown mechanism. Here, Rice et al. show that adiponectin receptor 1 is a key molecular switch for docosahexaenoic acid membrane homeostasis and photoreceptor cell function.
