GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
RDH8 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
PRRDH, SDR28C2
Description
Retinol dehydrogenase 8 (all-trans) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the reduction of all-trans-retinal to all-trans-retinol, the first reaction step of the rhodopsin regeneration pathway. This enzymatic reaction is the rate-limiting step in the visual cycle. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
