CC -!- FUNCTION: IRBP shuttles 11-cis and all trans retinoids between the
CC retinol isomerase in the pigment epithelium and the visual pigments in
CC the photoreceptor cells of the retina.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular
CC matrix, interphotoreceptor matrix. Note=Interphotoreceptor matrix that
CC permeates the space between the retina and the contiguous layer of
CC pigment epithelium cells.
