RDH5 - retinol dehydrogenase 5 Gene
Also Known as RDH1; 9cRDH; SDR9C5; HSD17B9
Species: Homo sapiens
About RDH5
This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues, 25 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 73.0), liver (RPKM 14.5) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes an enzyme belonging to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family. This retinol dehydrogenase functions to catalyze the final step in the biosynthesis of 11-cis retinaldehyde, which is the universal chromophore of visual Pigments. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive fundus albipunctatus, a rare form of night blindness that is characterized by a delay in the regeneration of cone and rod photopigments. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the neighboring upstream BLOC1S1 (biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex-1, subunit 1) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
