Function

LCN5_RAT Associates with spermatozoa in the epididymal fluid but does not bind tightly to them. Binds both all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acid. May act as a retinoid carrier protein which is required for epididymal function and/or sperm maturation.

Evolutionary Conservation

Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf.
