Metabolite Identification
Common Name11-cis-Retinaldehyde
Description13-cis-13-cis-13-cis-retinal, also known as 13Z-13-cis-retinal or 13-cis-retinal, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as retinoids. These are oxygenated derivatives of 3,7-dimethyl-1-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)nona-1,3,5,7-tetraene and derivatives thereof. Thus, 13-cis-13-cis-retinal is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. 13-cis-13-cis-13-cis-retinal is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. 13-cis-13-cis-13-cis-retinal exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. In cattle, 13-cis-13-cis-retinal is involved in the metabolic pathway called the retinol metabolism pathway.

Enzymes

General function:
Lipid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Retinol dehydrogenase with a clear preference for NADP. Converts all-trans-retinal to all-trans-retinol. May play a role in the regeneration of visual pigment at high light intensity.
Gene Name:
RDH8
Uniprot ID:
Q9N126
Molecular weight:
33956.0
Reactions
11-cis-Retinaldehyde + NADP → Retinal + NADPHdetails
General function:
Energy production and conversion
Specific function:
Catalyzes the oxidation of long-chain primary alcohols and the oxidation of S-(hydroxymethyl) glutathione. Also oxidizes long chain omega-hydroxy fatty acids, such as 20-HETE, producing both the intermediate aldehyde, 20-oxoarachidonate and the end product, a dicarboxylic acid, (5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-eicosatetraenedioate. Class-III ADH is remarkably ineffective in oxidizing ethanol.

Uniprot ID:
Q3ZC42
Molecular weight:

Reactions
11-cis-Retinaldehyde + NAD → Retinal + NADHdetails
General function:
Lipid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Retinoids dehydrogenase/reductase with a clear preference for NADP. Displays high activity towards 9-cis, 11-cis and all-trans-retinal. Shows very weak activity towards 13-cis-retinol. Also exhibits activity, albeit with lower affinity than for retinaldehydes, towards lipid peroxidation products (C9 aldehydes) such as 4-hydroxynonenal and trans-2-nonenal. May play an important function in photoreceptor cells to detoxify 4-hydroxynonenal and potentially other toxic aldehyde products resulting from lipid peroxidation. Has no dehydrogenase activity towards steroids.

General function:
Involved in G-protein coupled receptor activity
Specific function:
Receptor for all-trans- and 11-cis-retinal. Binds preferentially to the former and may catalyze the isomerization of the chromophore by a retinochrome-like mechanism.
