This reaction is an important step in vitamin A metabolism in the visual system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with early-onset severe retinal dystrophy and Leber congenital amaurosis 14. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Retinyl esters are storage forms of vitamin A. LRAT plays a critical role in vision. 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSpecies:\u003c\/b\u003e Human;Mouse;Rat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRange:\u003c\/b\u003e WB;IHC;IF;ELISA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProtein:\u003c\/b\u003e Lecithin retinol acyltransferase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDA:\u003c\/b\u003e 27kD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Upingbio","offers":[{"title":"100UL","offer_id":50689889861912,"sku":"YP-Ab-01848-100UL","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/5652\/1400\/files\/images_139a7446-b2c5-4394-8527-48da619842ac.png?v=1758592410","url":"https:\/\/danabiosci.com\/products\/yp-ab-01848-100ul","provider":"Dana Bioscience","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
