Table 1.
Flavin levels in Rtbdn-KO (KO) mice and wild type (WT) controls.
| Substrate | Flavin Levels (pmoles ± sd) | |
|---|---|---|
| WT | KO | |
| Riboflavin | 63.92 ± 2.88 | 55.89 ± 2.96 |
| FAD | 25.98 ± 5.14 | 25.18 ± 2.48 |
| FMN | 61.92 ± 11.87 | 59.07 ± 2.76 |
Levels of riboflavin, FMN and FAD were measured in dark adapted, 9-month-old +/+ (WT) and −/− (KO) retinas. FMN and FAD showed no differences between WT and Rtbdn-KO. Levels of riboflavin were only slightly reduced. Values represent average levels in pmoles per eye ± standard deviation (sd).
