- Synthesis of coenzyme A ester of retinoic acid: Intermediate in vitamin A metabolism
- Activation of retinoic acid by coenzyme A for the formation of ethylretinoate
- Incorporation of retinoic acid into proteins via retinoyl-CoA

"In contrast to retinoyl-notDiokine-glucuronide, which promotes the growth of vitamin A-deficient rats[1] and reverses the cornification of vaginal epithelial cells induced by vitamin A deficiency,[11] retinotaurine has very little or no biological activity. Most probably, it represents merely an excretory form of retinoic acid.[12] It is not known, however, if amidases present in the bacterial flora of the small intestine can hydrolyze the amide linkages in retinotaurine, allowing possible resorption and reutilization of the liberated retinoid in an enterohepatic circulation."
