RDH5

Gene
RDH5
Protein
Retinol dehydrogenase 5
Organism
Bos taurus
Length
318 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the oxidation of cis-isomers of retinol, including 11-cis-, 9-cis-, and 13-cis-retinol in an NAD-dependent manner (PubMed:7544779, PubMed:7836368, PubMed:9654122). Has no activity towards all-trans retinal (PubMed:9654122). Plays a significant role in 11-cis retinol oxidation in the retinal pigment epithelium cells (RPE) (By similarity). Also recognizes steroids (androsterone, androstanediol) as its substrates (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
