Human plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP4) is also a fatty acid-binding protein [PDF]
Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2018 RBP4 (plasma retinol-binding protein) is the 21 kDa transporter of all-trans retinol that circulates in plasma as a moderately tight 1:1 molar complex of the vitamin with the protein.

PLASMA RETINOL‐BINDING PROTEIN*
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1980Vitamin A is mobilized from liver stores and transported in plasma in the form of the lipid alcohol retinol, bound to a specific transport protein, retinol-binding protein (RBP). A great deal is known about the chemical structure, metabolism, and biological roles of RBP. RBP is a single polypeptide chain with molecular weight close to 20,000.

Plasma retinol binding protein: structure and function of the prototypic lipocalin
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 2000In terms of both structure and biological function, retinol binding protein (RBP) is one of the best characterized members of the lipocalin superfamily. The molecular interactions in which RBP participates are described herein.

Production of human plasma retinol-binding protein in Escherichia coll
Gene, 1993We designed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primer pair which allowed us to clone the cDNA coding for the human plasma retinol-binding protein (hRBP) into an Escherichia coli expression vector. Production of hRBP was confirmed by probing Western blots with antisera against plasma hRBP. Purification and characterization of the E.

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 2000
Plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP) concentrations have been suggested as surrogate indicators for plasma retinol concentrations in the assessment of vitamin A status in less technologically developed settings. Plasma RBP was measured by radial immunodiffusion and plasma retinol by high performance liquid chromatography in a cross-sectional study of ...

Journal of Proteome Research, 2003
A human plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP) mutant, named RBP-S, has been designed and produced in which the six native cysteine residues, involved in the formation of three disulfide bonds, have been replaced with serine. A hexa-histidine tag was also added to the C-terminus of RBP for ease of purification. The removal of the disulfide bonds led to a

The piscine plasma retinol‐binding protein
European Journal of Biochemistry, 19921. Retinol‐binding protein (RBP) has been isolated from the pooled plasma or rainbow trouts (Oncorhinchus mykiss) by gel filtration, hydrophobic interaction chromatography and ion‐exchange chromatography. By this procedure two forms of the protein, both with a molecular mass (approximately 20 kDa) similar to that of mammalian RBP, were purified to ...

The structure of β-lactoglobulin and its similarity to plasma retinol-binding protein
Nature, 1986Since its first isolation, bovine beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) has been an enigma: although it is abundant in the whey fraction of milk, its function is still not clear. The results of the many physicochemical studies on the protein need a structural interpretation.

Regulation of plasma retinol binding protein secretion in human HepG2 cells
Experimental Cell Research, 1992Retinol binding protein (RBP) is the plasma transport protein of retinol. Mobilization of RBP from the liver stores is stimulated by retinol. During vitamin A deficiency, RBP secretion is specifically inhibited while its rate of biosynthesis is unaffected.

Plasma Retinol-Binding Protein in Human Uterine Cervical Dysplasias and Cancer
Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 2010Plasma concentrations of retinol-binding protein (RBP) were measured in a cross-sectional study of asymptomatic normal menstruating women (n = 94) who obtained Pap smears and participated in a double-blinded nutritional survey. Controls (n = 45) were women with negative cervical cytology, normal colposcopy and no known gynecologic pathology or ...
