Rbp4 - retinol binding protein 4 Gene
Also Known as RBPA
Species: Rattus norvegicus
Summary
Enables retinol binding activity. Involved in response to ethanol and retinol transport. Located in extracellular space. Part of protein-containing complex. Biomarker of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human RBP4 (retinol binding protein 4).
