Binding of retinol-binding protein obtained from human urine with vitamin A derivatives and terpenoids.
Retinol-binding protein(RBP) was purified from fresh urine of patients suffering from Itai-Itai disease. The purified preparation contained two types of apo-RBP(Apo I and II) in equal amounts as major components (about 85% of the total RBP). The corresponding two retinol-binding forms (Holo I and II) were present as minor components (about 15% of the total)...
