Target Details for RBP4

Target: RBP4 (Retinol Binding Protein 4, Plasma (RBP4))

Alternative Name: RBP4

Background:

Background: RBP4 is also known as RDCCAS. This protein belongs to the lipocalin family and is the specific carrier for retinol (vitamin A alcohol) in the blood. It delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. In plasma, the RBP-retinol complex interacts with transthyretin which prevents its loss by filtration through the kidney glomeruli. A deficiency of vitamin A blocks secretion of the binding protein posttranslationally and results in defective delivery and supply to the epidermal cells.

Gene Full Name: retinol binding protein 4

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.

Gene ID: 5950

UniProt: P02753

Pathways: Regulatory RNA Pathways, Positive Regulation of Peptide Hormone Secretion, Carbohydrate Homeostasis, Production of Molecular Mediator of Immune Response
