Entrez ID 5959
Gene name Retinol dehydrogenase 5
Gene symbol RDH5
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
9cRDHHSD17B9RDH1SDR9C5
Chromosome 12
Chromosome location 12q13.2
Summary This gene encodes an enzyme belonging to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family. This retinol dehydrogenase functions to catalyze the final step in the biosynthesis of 11-cis retinaldehyde, which is the universal chromophore of visual pigm
