Crystal structure of AKR1B10 complexed with NADP+ and Caffeic acid phenethyl ester

Function

[AK1BA_HUMAN] Acts as all-trans-retinaldehyde reductase. Can efficiently reduce aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, and is less active on hexoses (in vitro). May be responsible for detoxification of reactive aldehydes in the digested food before the nutrients are passed on to other organs.[1]

About this Structure

4gq0 is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Human. This structure supersedes the now removed PDB entry 3v9q. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
