Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=O75911-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=O75911-2; Sequence=VSP_013256, VSP_013257; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
Catalytic ActivityAll-trans-retinol + NADP(+) = all-trans- retinal + NADPH.
FunctionCatalyzes the reduction of all-trans-retinal to all- trans-retinol in the presence of NADPH. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9705317}.
InductionBy retinoic acid. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11861404}.
MiscellaneousLocated in a region of chromosome 1 which is often deleted in aggressive neuroblastoma tumors.
Sequence CautionSequence=AAQ88460.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=15; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMembrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue SpecificityWidely expressed with highest levels found in heart, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, thyroid, testis, stomach, trachea and spinal cord.
