ABSTRACT:
In accordance with this invention, an RPE cell membrane associated protein which has a molecular weight of about 32 kd, as determined by SDS-PAGE, has been discovered. This protein, referred to an "p32," forms an oligomeric protein complex with the previously characterized p63 protein, a component of the membrane receptor for RBP. A nucleic acid molecule which codes for the p32 protein has also been isolated and sequence analysis shows that the p32 protein belongs to the family of short chain alcohol dehydrogenases, and exhibits 11-cis retinol dehydrogenase activity, the enzyme which catalyzes conversion of 11-cis-retinol into 11-cis retinaldehyde.
