Assignment of the gene (RLBP1) for cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein (CRALBP) to human chromosome 15q26 and mouse chromosome 7.
Cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein (CRALBP) has properties that suggest that it is involved in the visual process and, therefore, potentially with retinal diseases. A human cDNA probe has been used to map this gene to human chromosome 15q26 (somatic cell hybrids and in situ hybridization) and to mouse chromosome 7 by somatic cell hybrids.
