Retinol-binding proteins (RBP) are a family of proteins with diverse functions. They are retinol-binding proteins. Retinol and retinoic acid have important roles in regulating gene expression and the embryonal development. However, deficits or surpluses in either of these nutrients can result in early embryonic mortality or birth defects. The retinol transport and metabolism that is required for a successful pregnancy are handled by RBP. Retinol binding proteins have been discovered in the bovine, ovine, and porcine uterus, embryo, and extraembryonic tissue, implying that RBP is involved in ensuring appropriate retinol exposure to the embryo and successful transport at the maternal-fetal interface. Human RBP5 Recombinant Protein is a highly pure recombinant protein developed by Assay Genie for use in a range of applications.
