Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP01797
Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 7155
Name Retinoid isomerohydrolase
Synonyms
  1. All-trans-retinyl-palmitate hydrolase
  2. Retinal pigment epithelium-specific 65 kDa protein
  3. Retinol isomerase
Gene Name RPE65
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism
Specific Function Plays important roles in the production of 11-cis retinal and in visual pigment regeneration. The soluble form binds vitamin A (all-trans-retinol), making it available for LRAT processing to all-trans-retinyl ester. The membrane form, palmitoylated by LRAT, binds all-trans-retinyl esters, making them available for IMH (isomerohydrolase) processing to all-cis-retinol. The soluble form is regenerated by transferring its palmitoyl groups onto 11-cis-retinol, a reaction catalyzed by LRAT. The enzymatic activity is linearly dependent of the expression levels and membrane association.
