NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
RBP4: Delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. In plasma, the RBP-retinol complex interacts with transthyretin, this prevents its loss by filtration through the kidney glomeruli. Defects in RBP4 are a cause of retinol-binding protein deficiency (RBP deficiency). This condition causes night vision problems. It produces a typical 'fundus xerophthalmicus', featuring a progressed atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium. Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.

Product Notes
The Mouse RBP-4 rbp4 (Catalog #AAA9300952) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9300952 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse RBP-4. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Retinol-binding protein 4, RBP-4, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
