Plays important roles in the production of 11-cis retinal and in visual pigment regeneration.
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.
The enzymatic activity is linearly dependent of the expression levels and membrane association.
