eys+/-; lrp5+/− Zebrafish Reveals Lrp5 Can Be the Receptor of Retinol in the Visual Cycle
Summary: Vision is essential for vertebrates including humans. Sustained vision is accomplished by retinoid metabolism, the “visual cycle,” where all-trans retinol (atROL) is incorporated into the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) from photoreceptors presumably through decade-long missing receptor(s)...
