NADH-dependent oxidoreductase which catalyzes the oxidation of all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal. Plays a role in the regulation of cardiac and skeletal muscle metabolic functions. Maintains Ca(2+) intracellular homeostasis by repressing Ca(2+) release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in myotubes, possibly through local alternations in NAD/NADH or retinol/retinal. Also plays a role in Ca(2+) homeostasis by controlling Ca(2+) overload in the cytosol and the SR in myotubes. Involved in glucose uptake into skeletal muscles and muscle performance by activating PI3K and mTORC2-mediated AKT1 phosphorylation signaling pathways, possibly through the action of its downstream catalytic product all-trans-retinoic acid. . This is the function of ENSG00000184544 (DHRS7C, dehydrogenase/reductase 7C).
