About Rdh16

Summary

Enables NAD-retinol dehydrogenase activity. Involved in positive regulation of retinoic acid biosynthetic process; retinoic acid metabolic process; and retinol metabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is integral component of organelle membrane. Orthologous to human RDH16 (retinol dehydrogenase 16). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
