UniProt ID Q9BX79
Protein name Receptor for retinol uptake STRA6 (Retinol-binding protein receptor STRA6) (Stimulated by retinoic acid gene 6 protein homolog)
Protein function Functions as a retinol transporter. Accepts all-trans retinol from the extracellular retinol-binding protein RBP4, facilitates retinol transport across the cell membrane, and then transfers retinol to the cytoplasmic retinol-binding protein RBP1
