- LRAT
Lecithin retinol acyltransferase (phosphatidylcholine--retinol O-acyltransferase), also known as LRAT, is a human
gene .cite web | title = Entrez Gene: LRAT lecithin retinol acyltransferase (phosphatidylcholine--retinol O-acyltransferase)| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=9227| accessdate = ]PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = The protein encoded by this gene is a microsomal enzyme that catalyzes the esterification of all-trans-retinol into all-trans-retinyl ester duringphototransduction , an essential reaction for the retinoid cycle in visual system and vitamin A status in liver. Mutations in this gene have been associated with early-onset severe retinal dystrophy.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: LRAT lecithin retinol acyltransferase (phosphatidylcholine--retinol O-acyltransferase)| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=9227| accessdate = ]ee also
