physiological function | overexpression of RPE65 in cell culture leads to the production of meso-zeaxanthin from lutein | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | overexpression of RPE65 in cell culture leads to the production of meso-zeaxanthin from lutein. Pharmacologic inhibition of RPE65 function results in significant inhibition of meso-zeaxanthin biosynthesis during chicken eye development | Gallus gallus |
