Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
Critical isomerohydrolase in the retinoid cycle involved in regeneration of 11-cis-retinal, the chromophore of rod and cone opsins. Catalyzes the cleavage and isomerization of all-trans-retinyl fatty acid esters to 11-cis-retinol which is further oxidized by 11-cis retinol dehydrogenase to 11-cis-retinal for use as visual chromophore. Essential for the production of 11-cis retinal for both rod and cone photoreceptors. Also capable of catalyzing the isomerization of lutein to meso-zeaxanthin an eye-specific carotenoid. The soluble form binds vitamin A (all-trans-retinol), making it available for LRAT processing to all-trans-retinyl ester. The membrane form, palmitoylated by LRAT, binds all-trans-retinyl esters, making them available for IMH (isomerohydrolase) processing to all-cis-retinol. The soluble form is regenerated by transferring its palmitoyl groups onto 11-cis-retinol, a reaction catalyzed by LRAT.

  1. RPE65 undergoes conformational changes in secondary and tertiary structures upon binding with the phospholipid membrane. These conformational rearrangements facilitate restoration of a catalytically active state of RPE65. PMID:21446919
  2. Rpe65 isomerase associates with membranes through an electrostatic interaction with acidic phospholipid headgroups. PMID:19892706
  3. RPE65 from the cone-dominant chicken RPE possesses significantly higher specific retinol isomerohydrolase activity, when compared with RPE65 from rod-dominant species PMID:18216020
  4. Results provide conclusive evidence that RPE65 is the isomerohydrolase of the visual cycle. PMID:19490105
