Reduction of All-trans-retinal in Vertebrate Rod Photoreceptors Requires the Combined Action of RDH8 and RDH12

In vertebrate rod cells, retinoid dehydrogenases/reductases (RDHs) are critical for reducing the reactive aldehyde all-trans-retinal that is released by photoactivated rhodopsin, to all-trans-retinol (vitamin A). Previous studies have shown that RDH8 localizes to photoreceptor outer segments and is...
