Summary: Predicted to enable fatty acid binding activity and retinoic acid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within hindbrain morphogenesis and regulation of retinoic acid receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; immature eye; neural keel; neural rod; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to human CRABP2 (cellular retinoic acid binding protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
