Serum amyloid A is a retinol binding protein that transports retinol during bacterial infection

eLife, 2014
Retinol plays a vital role in the immune response to infection, yet proteins that mediate retinol transport during infection have not been identified.

Possible Interacting Proteins for Retinol Binding Protein and Cellular Retinol Binding Protein [PDF]

, 2011
Retinol or vitamin A is crucial for many biological processes in the body such as proliferation, differentiation and reproduction. It is mainly stored in the liver and can be broken down to retinoic acid inside the cell. It travels in the circulatory system attached to Retinol Binding Protein (RBP) and its transport into the cell is mediated by the RBP

The FAR protein family of parasitic nematodes.

PLoS Pathogens, 2022
Fatty acid-and retinol-binding proteins (FARs) belong to a unique family of excreted/secreted proteins (ESPs) found exclusively in nematodes. Much of our understanding of these proteins, however, is limited to their in vitro binding characteristics ...

Structural and functional studies of intrinsically disordered fibronectin-binding proteins [PDF]

, 2009
Bacterial fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) mediate adhesion of bacteria to host tissues through binding to the human protein fibronectin (Fn). FnBPs are predicted to contain a series of intrinsically disordered Fn-binding repeats (FnBRs), which ...

Identification of Transthyretin Tetramer Kinetic Stabilizers That Are Capable of Inhibiting the Retinol-Dependent Retinol Binding Protein 4-Transthyretin Interaction [PDF]

, 2021
Dissociation of transthyretin (TTR) tetramers may lead to misfolding and aggregation of pro-amyloidogenic monomers, which underlies TTR amyloidosis (ATTR) pathophysiology.
