Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables NAD-retinol dehydrogenase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including heart morphogenesis; negative regulation of retinoic acid receptor signaling pathway; and regulation of ossification. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in lipid droplet. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human DHRS3 (dehydrogenase/reductase 3).
