CC -!- FUNCTION: Transfers the acyl group from the sn-1 position of
CC phosphatidylcholine to all-trans retinol, producing all-trans retinyl
CC esters. Retinyl esters are storage forms of vitamin A
CC (PubMed:28758396). LRAT plays a critical role in vision (By
CC similarity). It provides the all-trans retinyl ester substrates for the
CC isomerohydrolase which processes the esters into 11-cis-retinol in the
CC retinal pigment epithelium; due to a membrane-associated alcohol
CC dehydrogenase, 11 cis-retinol is oxidized and converted into 11-cis-
CC retinaldehyde which is the chromophore for rhodopsin and the cone
CC photopigments (By similarity). Required for the survival of cone
CC photoreceptors and correct rod photoreceptor cell morphology
CC (PubMed:25416279). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O95237,

CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Knockout mice are viable (PubMed:25416279).
CC Knockout mice at one month of age show loss of nearly all cone
CC photoreceptors in the central and ventral retina (PubMed:25416279).
CC Surviving cone cells show severe degeneration, the dorsal retinal also
CC exhibits a significant reduction in cone photoreceptors
CC (PubMed:25416279). At one month of age rod photoreceptors show shorter
CC outer segments (PubMed:25416279). Nearly all cone photoreceptors are
CC lost by six months of age (PubMed:25416279). Remaining cone cells show
CC disrupted structures with the majority showing abnormal cell bodies or
CC lack of an outer segment (PubMed:25416279).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25416279}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the H-rev107 family. {ECO:0000305}.
