Introduction:
CRABP2 NCBI Accession No: NP_001869 regulates the access of retinoic acid to the nuclear retinoic acid receptors. CRABP2 is involved in a regulatory feedback mechanism that controls the action of retinoic acid on cell differentiation.
CRABP2 is involved in the conversion of vitamin A into its intracellular active form retinoic acid, which regulate the genes responsible for lipid metabolism and adipocyte differentiation. CRABP2 gene is located on chromosome 1q21-23 and this region has been linked with related disorders such as familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
CRABP proteins are of low molecular weight having an important function in retinoic acid-mediated regulation of human skin growth and differentiation.

Description:
CRABP2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 136 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 15.6 kDa.
The CRABP2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Source:
Escherichia Coli.
