    Summary
    Enables retinol binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; heart development; and reproductive structure development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including detection of light stimulus involved in visual perception; retinoid metabolic process; and terpenoid transport. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; brain; genitourinary system; gut; and hindlimb. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human RBP4 (retinol binding protein 4).

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Status: VALIDATED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) differs in the 5' UTR, lacks a portion of the 5' coding region, and uses a downstream translational start codon, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (2) is shorter at the N-terminus, compared to isoform 1.
