A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of RDH12 antibody, Alternative Names: RDH12 control peptide, RDH12 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-RDH12 Blocking Peptide, Retinol Dehydrogenase 12 Blocking Peptide, All-Trans/9-Cis/11-Cis Blocking Peptide, FLJ30273 Blocking Peptide, LCA3 Blocking Peptide, RDH12, RDH-12, RDH 12, RDH-12 Blocking Peptide, RDH 12 Blocking Peptide
RDH12 is an NADPH-dependent retinal reductase whose highest activity is toward 9-cis and all-trans-retinol. RDH12 also plays a role in the metabolism of short-chain aldehydes but does not exhibit steroid dehydrogenase activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Leber congenital amaurosis type 3 (LCA3).
