Cancer |
| Target Function |
Retinol-binding protein that mediates retinol transport in blood plasma. Delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. Transfers the bound all-trans retinol to STRA6, that then facilitates retinol transport across the cell membrane. |
| Subcellular Location |
Secreted. |
| Protein Family |
Calycin superfamily, Lipocalin family |
| Associated Diseases |
Retinal dystrophy, iris coloboma, and comedogenic acne syndrome (RDCCAS); Microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma, 10 (MCOPCB10) |
| Tissue Specificity |
Detected in blood plasma and in urine (at protein level). |
