RDH10 retinol dehydrogenase 10 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 157506)

Symbol: RDH10

Full name: retinol dehydrogenase 10

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: SDR16C4

Summary: This gene encodes a retinol dehydrogenase, which converts all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal, with preference for NADP as a cofactor. Studies in mice suggest that this protein is essential for synthesis of embryonic retinoic acid and is required for limb, craniofacial, and organ development. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Expression: Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 18.4), gall bladder (RPKM 13.9) and 24 other tissues

Orthologs: mouse

Gene size: 30680bp

Exon count: 6
