Uniprot Description

Functions as retinol transporter (PubMed:23839944, PubMed:24852372). Accepts all-trans retinol from the extracellular retinol-binding protein RBP4, facilitates retinol transport across the cell membrane, and then transfers retinol to the cytoplasmic retinol-binding protein RBP1. Retinol uptake is enhanced by LRAT, an enzyme that converts retinol to all-trans retinyl esters, the storage forms of vitamin A (). Contributes to the activation of a signaling cascade that depends on retinol transport and LRAT-dependent generation of retinol metabolites that then trigger activation of JAK2 and its target STAT5, and ultimately increase the expression of SOCS3 and inhibit cellular responses to insulin (PubMed:21368206, PubMed:23839944). Important for the homeostasis of vitamin A and its derivatives, such as retinoic acid and 11-cis-retinal (PubMed:22467576, PubMed:24852372). STRA6-mediated transport is particularly important in the eye, and under conditions of dietary vitamin A deficiency (PubMed:22467576, PubMed:23839944, PubMed:24852372). Does not transport retinoic acid ().

Product Notes

The Stra6 stra6 (Catalog #AAA1196556) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli or Yeast or Baculovirus or Mammalian Cell and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Stimulated by retinoic acid gene 6 protein (Stra6), 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.
