Retinol dehydrogenase 13 (all-trans/9-cis) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RDH13 gene. This gene encodes a mitochondrial short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase, which catalyzes the reduction and oxidation of retinoids. The encoded enzyme may function in retinoic acid production and may also protect the mitochondria against oxidative stress. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [5]
The human RDH13 gene is on the 19th chromosome, with its specific localization being 19q13.42. The gene contains 12 exons in total. [5]
The analysis of the submitochondrial localization of RDH13 indicates its association with the inner mitochondrial membrane. The primary structure of RDH13 contains two hydrophobic segments, 2–21 and 242–261, which are sufficiently long to serve as transmembrane segments; however, as shown in the present study, alkaline extraction completely removes the protein from the membrane, indicating that RDH13 is a peripheral membrane protein. [6] The peripheral association of RDH13 with the membrane further distinguishes this protein from the microsomal retinaldehyde reductases, which are integral membrane proteins that appear to be anchored in the membrane via their N-terminal hydrophobic segments. [7]
RDH13 is most closely related to the NADP+-dependent microsomal enzymes RDH11, RDH12 and RDH14. [8] [9] Purified RDH13 acts on retinoids in an oxidative reductive manner, and strongly prefers the cofactor NADPH over NADH. Moreover, RDH13 is much has much more efficient reductase activity than dehydrogenase activity. RDH13 as a retinaldehyde reductase is significantly less active than that of a related protein RDH11, primarily because of the much higher Km value for retinaldehyde. However, the kcat value of RDH13 for retinaldehyde reduction. arable with that of RDH11, and the Km values of the two enzymes for NADPH are also very similar. Thus, consistent with its sequence similarity to RDH11, RDH12 and RDH14, RDH13 acts as an NADP+-dependent retinaldehyde reductase. [10]
RDH13 is localized in the mitochondria, which is different from the other members of this family, as they localize to the endoplasmic reticulum. The exact sequence targeting RDH13 to the mitochondria remains to be established.
RDH13 is part of a subfamily of four retinol dehydrogenases, RDH11, RDH12, RDH13, and RDH14, that display dual-substrate specificity, uniquely metabolizing all-trans- and cis-retinols with C(15) pro-R specificity. The metabolites involved in these reactions are known as retinoids, which are chromophores involved in vision, transcriptional regulation, and cellular differentiation. RDH11-14 could be involved in the first step of all-trans- and 9-cis-retinoic acid production in many tissues. RDH11-14 fill the gap in our understanding of 11-cis-retinal and all-trans-retinal transformations in photoreceptor and retinal pigment epithelial cells. The dual-substrate specificity of this subfamily explains the minor phenotype associated with mutations in 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase (RDH5) causing fundus albipunctatus in humans. [9]
Retinal is a polyene chromophore. Retinal, bound to proteins called opsins, is the chemical basis of visual phototransduction, the light-detection stage of visual perception (vision).
Retinoic acid (used simplified here for all-trans-retinoic acid) is a metabolite of vitamin A1 (all-trans-retinol) that mediates the functions of vitamin A1 required for growth and development. All-trans-retinoic acid is required in chordate animals, which includes all higher animals from fish to humans. During early embryonic development, all-trans-retinoic acid generated in a specific region of the embryo helps determine position along the embryonic anterior/posterior axis by serving as an intercellular signaling molecule that guides development of the posterior portion of the embryo. It acts through Hox genes, which ultimately control anterior/posterior patterning in early developmental stages.
17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases, also 17-ketosteroid reductases (17-KSR), are a group of alcohol oxidoreductases which catalyze the reduction of 17-ketosteroids and the dehydrogenation of 17β-hydroxysteroids in steroidogenesis and steroid metabolism. This includes interconversion of DHEA and androstenediol, androstenedione and testosterone, and estrone and estradiol.
In enzymology, a retinol dehydrogenase (RDH) (EC 1.1.1.105) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
In enzymology, a retinal dehydrogenase, also known as retinaldehyde dehydrogenase (RALDH), catalyzes the chemical reaction converting retinal to retinoic acid. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically the class acting on aldehyde or oxo- donor groups with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor groups, the systematic name being retinal:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in retinol metabolism. The general scheme for the reaction catalyzed by this enzyme is:
Retinal pigment epithelium-specific 65 kDa protein, also known as retinoid isomerohydrolase, is an enzyme of the vertebrate visual cycle that is encoded in humans by the RPE65 gene. RPE65 is expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium and is responsible for the conversion of all-trans-retinyl esters to 11-cis-retinol during phototransduction. 11-cis-retinol is then used in visual pigment regeneration in photoreceptor cells. RPE65 belongs to the carotenoid oxygenase family of enzymes.
