An Entity of Type: protein, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Vitamin A receptor, Stimulated by retinoic acid 6 or STRA6 protein was originally discovered as a transmembrane cell-surface receptor for retinol-binding protein. STRA6 is unique as it functions both as a membrane transporter and a cell surface receptor, particularly as a cytokine receptor. In fact, STRA6 may be the first of a whole new class of proteins that might be known as "cytokine signaling transporters." STRA6 is primarily known as the receptor for retinol binding protein and for its relevance in the transport of retinol to specific sites such as the eye (Vitamin A). It does this through the removal of retinol (ROH) from the holo-Retinol Binding Protein (RBP) and transports it into the cell to be metabolized into retinoids and/or kept as a retinylester. As a receptor, after holo-RBP

dbo:abstract
  • La proteína STRA6 (de sus siglas en inglés "stimulated by retinoic acid gene 6 homolog (mouse)") es un receptor celular de la (vitamina A) y tiene un importante papel en el transporte de dicho retinol a sitios específicos tales como el ojo.​ Algunos estudios han asociado mutaciones de STRA6 con anoftalmía, hernia diafragmática, hipoplasia pulmonar y síndrome de defecto cardíaco.​​ (es)

It does this through the removal of retinol (ROH) from the holo-Retinol Binding Protein (RBP) and transports it into the cell to be metabolized into retinoids and/or kept as a retinylester. As a receptor, after holo-RBP is bound, STRA6 activates the JAK/STAT pathway, resulting in the activation of transcription factor, STAT5. These two functions—retinol transporter and cytokine receptor—while using different pathways, are processes that depend on each other. (en)
