Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.

LratLecithin retinol acyltransferase; Transfers the acyl group from the sn-1 position of phosphatidylcholine to all-trans retinol, producing all-trans retinyl esters. Retinyl esters are storage forms of vitamin A (By similarity). LRAT plays a critical role in vision (By similarity). It provides the all-trans retinyl ester substrates for the isomerohydrolase which processes the esters into 11-cis-retinol in the retinal pigment epithelium; due to a membrane-associated alcohol dehydrogenase, 11 cis-retinol is oxidized and converted into 11-cis- retinaldehyde which is the chromophore for rhodo [...] (231 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rpe65
Retinoid isomerohydrolase; Critical isomerohydrolase in the retinoid cycle involved in regeneration of 11-cis-retinal, the chromophore of rod and cone opsins. Catalyzes the cleavage and isomerization of all-trans-retinyl fatty acid esters to 11-cis-retinol which is further oxidized by 11-cis retinol dehydrogenase to 11-cis-retinal for use as visual chromophore. Essential for the production of 11-cis retinal for both rod and cone photoreceptors. Also capable of catalyzing the isomerization of lutein to meso-zeaxanthin an eye-specific carotenoid. The soluble form binds vitamin A (all-tra [...]

Rdh12
Retinol dehydrogenase 12 (Predicted); Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
     
 0.975
Cyp26a1
Cytochrome P450, family 26, subfamily A, polypeptide 1; Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
   
 
 0.973
Rdh10
Retinol dehydrogenase 10; Retinol dehydrogenase with a clear preference for NADP. Converts all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal.
   
 
 0.968
Dgat1
Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1; Catalyzes the terminal and only committed step in triacylglycerol synthesis by using diacylglycerol and fatty acyl CoA as substrates. In contrast to DGAT2 it is not essential for survival. May be involved in VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) assembly. Functions as the major acyl-CoA retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) in the skin, where it acts to maintain retinoid homeostasis and prevent retinoid toxicity leading to skin and hair disorders. In liver, plays a role in esterifying exogenous fatty acids to glycerol. Belongs to the membrane-bound acyltransf [...]

Rdh11
Retinol dehydrogenase 11; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
     
 0.959
Dhrs9
Dehydrogenase/reductase SDR family member 9; 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase that converts 3-alpha- tetrahydroprogesterone (allopregnanolone) to dihydroxyprogesterone and 3-alpha-androstanediol to dihydroxyprogesterone (By similarity). Plays also role in the biosynthesis of retinoic acid from retinaldehyde. Can utilize both NADH and NADPH (By similarity). Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
     
 0.954
Retsat
All-trans-retinol 13,14-reductase; Catalyzes the saturation of all-trans-retinol to all-trans- 13,14-dihydroretinol. Does not exhibit any activity toward all-trans- retinoic acid, nor 9-cis, 11-cis or 13-cis-retinol isomers. May play a role in the metabolism of vitamin A. Independently of retinol conversion, may regulate liver metabolism upstream of MLXIPL/ChREBP. May play a role in adipocyte differentiation. Belongs to the carotenoid/retinoid oxidoreductase family. CrtISO subfamily.

Rbp1
Retinol-binding protein 1; Cytoplasmic retinol-binding protein. Accepts retinol from the transport protein STRA6, and thereby contributes to retinol uptake, storage and retinoid homeostasis (By similarity); Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Fatty-acid binding protein (FABP) family.
   
 
 0.940
Dhrs3
Dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR family) member 3, isoform CRA_b; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
