RLBP1 (Retinaldehyde-Binding Protein 1), also known as CRALBP (Cellular Retinaldehyde-Binding Protein), is a key protein involved in the visual cycle, a critical metabolic pathway supporting vision in vertebrates. Primarily expressed in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and Müller glial cells of the retina, RLBP1 binds and transports hydrophobic retinoids, facilitating the regeneration of visual pigments in photoreceptor cells. It plays a central role in converting 11-cis-retinol to 11-cis-retinaldehyde, a reaction essential for sustaining the light-sensitive chromophore required for phototransduction.
Structurally, RLBP1 belongs to the CRAL-TRIO protein family, characterized by a conserved lipid-binding domain that accommodates vitamin A derivatives. Its ability to stabilize and solubilize retinoids ensures efficient recycling of visual chromophores, particularly under high light stress. Dysregulation or mutations in the RLBP1 gene are linked to inherited retinal disorders, such as retinitis pigmentosa (Bothnia type), retinitis punctata albescens, and fundus dystrophies, often causing night blindness, progressive vision loss, or macular degeneration. These conditions highlight RLBP1's non-redundant role in retinal homeostasis.
Recombinant RLBP1 protein is engineered using expression systems (e.g., E. coli, mammalian cells) to study its biochemical properties, interactions with visual cycle enzymes, and pathological mechanisms. It serves as a tool for structural analysis (e.g., crystallography), drug screening for retinopathies, and developing gene therapies. Research on recombinant RLBP1 has advanced understanding of retinoid metabolism and its potential as a therapeutic target, though challenges remain in addressing mutation-specific rescue strategies and delivery mechanisms to retinal tissues.
