Rbp7 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables retinoid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid transport. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo mesenchyme; epididymal fat pad; musculature; respiratory system; and small intestine. Orthologous to human RBP7 (retinol binding protein 7).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Rbp7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
