Background
This gene encodes a specific binding protein for a vitamin A family member and is thought to play an important role in retinoic acid-mediated differentiation and proliferation processes. It is structurally similar to the cellular retinol-binding proteins, but binds only retinoic acid at specific sites within the nucleus, which may contribute to vitamin A-directed differentiation in epithelial tissue.

Function
domain:Forms a beta-barrel structure that accommodates hydrophobic ligands in its interior.,function:Cytosolic CRABPs may regulate the access of retinoic acid to the nuclear retinoic acid receptors.,similarity:Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Fatty-acid binding protein (FABP) family.,
Protein name
Cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 1 (Cellular retinoic acid-binding protein I) (CRABP-I)
