Cellular Retinol- and Retinoic Acid-binding Proteins of Bovine Retina
A three-step purification has been developed for the cellular retinoland cellular retinoic acid-binding proteins from extracts of bovine retina. The two binding proteins elute together in Step 1 (gel filtration) and separate in Step 2 (DEAE-cellulose chromatography), and each is purified to apparent homogeneity in the third step (calcium phosphate gel chromatography). The retinoland retinoic ac...
متن کاملCloning, Expression, and Regulation of Bovine Cellular Retinoic Acid-binding Protein-II (CRABP-II) during Adipogenesis*
The mammalian cellular retinoic acid-binding proteins, CRABP-I and CRABP-II, bind retinoic acid which acts as an inducer of differentiation in several biological systems. To investigate a possible role for CRABP-II in bovine adipogenesis, we have cloned bovine CRABP-II cDNA and the coding region for CRABP-I. The predicted amino acid sequences of CRABP-II were highly conserved among several anim...
متن کاملThe cellular retinoic acid binding protein I is dispensable.
The cellular retinoic acid binding proteins I and II (CRABPI and CRABPII) bind retinoic acid with high affinity, exhibit distinct patterns of expression during embryonic development, and are thought to play important roles in the RA signaling pathway. We have generated a targeted mutation of the CRABPI gene using the "hit-and-run" strategy and shown that it prevents the production of a function...
متن کاملThe cellular retinoic-acid-binding protein is expressed in tissues associated with retinoic-acid-induced malformations.
Retinoic acid (RA) is thought to play a role in embryonic pattern formation in vertebrates. A naturally occurring gradient of endogenous RA has been demonstrated in the developing chick limb bud, while local application of RA leads to the formation of additional digits. In mammals, a well-defined spectrum of birth defects has been reported as a result of fetal exposure to excess RA. In analogy ...
متن کاملBinding Protein-II Mammary Carcinoma Suppression by Cellular Retinoic Acid
Retinoic acid (RA) modulates cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, and is used in chemotherapy and chemoprevention in several human cancers. RA exerts its pleiotropic activities by activating the nuclear receptors, retinoic acid receptor (RAR), which, in turn, regulate transcription of multiple target genes. In cells, RA also associates with cellular RA-binding proteins [cellular ...
