About Stra6

Summary

Predicted to enable retinol transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in response to retinoic acid. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in syndromic microphthalmia 9. Orthologous to human STRA6 (signaling receptor and transporter of retinol STRA6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
