Protein attributes

Sequence length	512 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Recognizes as substrates free retinal and cellular retinol-binding protein-bound retinal. Seems to be the key enzyme in the formation of an RA gradient along the dorso-ventral axis during the early eye development and also in the development of the olfactory system By similarity.
Catalytic activity	An aldehyde + NAD(P)+ + H2O = a carboxylate + NAD(P)H.
Pathway	Cofactor metabolism; retinol metabolism.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family.
