Record overview

MGPD IDMGP006603
Gene ID145226
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameretinol dehydrogenase 12 (all-trans/9-cis/11-cis)
Gene Symbol RDH12
SynonymsLCA3; RP53; LCA13; SDR7C2;
Alternate namesretinol dehydrogenase 12; all-trans and 9-cis retinol dehydrogenase; retinol dehydrogenase 12, all-trans and 9-cis; short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family 7C, member 2;
Chromosome14
Map Location14q24.1
EC Number1.1.1.-
SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is an NADPH-dependent retinal reductase whose highest activity is toward 9-cis and all-trans-retinol. The encoded enzyme also plays a role in the metabolism of short-chain aldehydes but does not exhibit steroid dehydrogenase activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Leber congenital amaurosis type 3 (LCA3). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
