Related Product Information for Rbp4 recombinant protein
Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4; RBP) is a 21kD secreted protein, a member of the lipocalin family and is known as the primary transporter of retinol (vitamin A) to tissues. A recent report revealed RBP4 as an adipokine linking glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) suppression in adipose tissue to insulin. Elevated human and mouse serum RBP4 levels are associated with insulin resistance and its severity, obesity, and certain components of metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, human serum RBP4 levels are closely related to renal function.

NCBI Description
may play a role in vitamin A transport [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
Function: 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.
Subcellular location: Secreted.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.

Product Notes
The Rbp4 rbp4 (Catalog #AAA635505) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Rat, HEK 293 cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The amino acid sequence is listed below: Rat RBP4 (aa 19-201) is fused at the N-terminus to a DYKDDDDK-t ag. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "RBP4, Rat, Recombinant Protein" 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
