Remnants of the structure most commonly used in humans to store this molecule are endocytosed by parenchymal cells that interact with apolipoprotein E in chylomicra. One derivative of this vitamin is used to treat skin wrinkles, and animals often store it as a palmitate ester. All forms of this vitamin contain a beta-ionone ring with an attached isoprenoid chain, and a precursor to this compound is beta- carotene. For 10 points, name this fat-soluble protein whose defici
