QuickView for photobleaching (biogroup)
- Description:
- Retinaldehyde-binding protein 1 (RLBP1, also known as CRALBP) is a retinoid-binding protein expressed in retinal pigment epithelial and Müller glia and is believed to be involved in the retinal visual cycle. It is essential for mammalian vision by routing 11-cis-retinoids for the conversion of photobleached opsin molecules into photosensitive visual pigments. Mutations in the RLBP1 gene cause retinitis pigmentosa autosomal recessive (ARRP) and Bothnia retinal dystrophy (BRD).
