NCIt definition : Human CRABP1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 15q24 and is approximately
8 kb in length. This allele, which encodes cellular retinoic acid-binding protein
1, plays a role in the modulation of retinoic acid signaling.;
NCIt note : The methylation status of the CRABP1 gene in breast cancer may be associated with
a higher metastatic potential. (Sci. Transl. Med. 2011; 3. DOI: 10.1126/scitranslmed.3001875.);
