Description
Description: RBP7 Human Recombinant fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 154 amino acids (1-134 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 17.6kDa. The RBP7 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: RBP7 is a member of a superfamily of small cytoplasmic proteins which interact with hydrophobic ligands. RBP7 is cytoplasmic protein which, like CRBP I and CRBP II, forms ?-barrel structures and participates in the intracellular transport of retinol. RBP7 is a newly identified cellular retinol carrier, which is expressed in the kidney, heart and transverse colon in humans
