CRABP 1, Recombinant Human (Cellular Retinoic Acid Binding Protein I, CRABP, CRABP-I, CRABPI, RBP5)

CRABP1, also known as cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 1, is a member of specific carrier proteins for members of the vitamin A family. This protein is assumed to play an important role in retinoic acid-mediated differentiation and proliferation processes. CRABP1 is structurally similar to the cellular retinol-binding proteins, but binds only retinoic acid. It is constitutively expressed and is believed to have different functions in the cell than the related CRABP2. Recombinant CRABP1 protein , expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
