RBP4, also known as retinol-binding protein 4, is the specific carrier for retinol, and is responsible for the conversion of unstable and insoluble retinol in aqueous solution into stable and soluble complex in plasma through their tight interaction. This protein delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. In plasma, the RBP-retinol complex interacts with transthyretin and prevents its loss by filtration through the kidney glomeruli. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa19-201 from mouse RBP4, fused to His-tag at C-terminal expressed in insect cell.
