Specifications
Target Information
Porcine retinol-binding protein 2 (RBP2), also known as Cellular Retinol-Binding Protein 2 (CRBP2), is a member of the fatty acid-binding protein family. It is involved in the uptake and metabolism of dietary vitamin A (retinol) within enterocytes of the small intestine. RBP2 binds retinol and other long-chain monoacylglycerols with high affinity, ensuring their safe transport and preventing oxidation. This protein is highly concentrated in the proximal small intestine, where it constitutes a significant portion of soluble proteins. RBP2 also modulates the release of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) in response to dietary fat, and its absence can lead to increased susceptibility to obesity and metabolic disorders.
