The vitamin A metabolism and expression of retinoid-binding proteins differ in HaCaT cells and normal human keratinocytes

open access: yes, 1999
HaCaT keratinocytes differ from normal human epidermal keratinocytes (HEK) by constitutive expression of differentiation markers which are normally suppressed by vitamin A.

Mechanism of pH-induced Release of Retinol from Retinol-Binding Protein

open access: yes, 1993
A hypothesis is proposed explaining the mechanism of pH-induced release of retinol from retinol-binding protein (RBP). A number of conservative positively charged side chains located on the retinol-binding face of the RBP molecule are involved in salt ...

Essential dynamics of the cellular retinol-binding protein - Evidence for ligand-induced conformational changes

open access: yes, 1995
The cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) is an intracellular retinol carrier protein belonging to a family of hydrophobic ligand-binding proteins, It transports retinol to specific locations in the cell where, for instance, it is esterified for ...

High-resolution Structures of Retinol-Binding Protein in Complex with Retinol: pH-induced Protein Structural Changes in the Crystal State

open access: yes, 2003
The targeted delivery of non-polar ligands by binding proteins to membranes or membrane receptors involves the release of these ligands on or near the plasma membrane of target cells. Because these hydrophobic ligands are often bound inside a deep cavity

Characterisation of transthyretin and retinol-binding protein in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of dogs

open access: yes, 2006
The aim of this study was to investigate differences in concentrations of vitamin A, transthyretin (TTR) and retinol-binding protein (RBP) between plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in dogs. RBP was detected using ELISA, and both RBP and TTR by Western

Cellular Retinol-binding Proteins: a different ligand uptake triggered by the hydropathy profile of the protein surface.

open access: yes, 2016
Cellular Retinol-binding Proteins (CRBP) type I and II are the main cytosolic retinol carriers and are members of the Intracellular Lipid-binding protein family.

Chicken prealbumin: Nature of its heterogeneity and binding of plasma retinol-binding protein and thyroid hormones

open access: yes, 1978
The heterogeneity of chicken prealbumin (PA) has been shown to be due to the occurrence of three different plasma proteins (PA1 PA2 and PA3). Equilibrium dialysis studies revealed that the thyroid hormones bind specifically to PA2. These hormones bind at

Crystallographic Studies on Complexes Between Retinoids and Retinol-Binding Protein

open access: yes, 1994
The three-dimensional structures of complexes between bovine plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP) and three retinol analogs with different end groups (fenretinide, all-trans retinoic acid, and axerophthene) have been determined to 1.8-1.9-Angstrom ...
