About RBP2

Cytogenetic location: 3q23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:139,452,884-139,476,516 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 249 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 1065.7) and small intestine (RPKM 769.4).

Summary

This gene encodes an abundant protein present in the small intestinal epithelium. It is thought to participate in the uptake and/or intracellular metabolism of vitamin A. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin necessary for growth, reproduction, differentiation of epithelial tissues, and vision. This protein may also modulate the supply of retinoic acid to the nuclei of endometrial cells during the menstrual cycle. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
