ABCD4 rabbit polyclonal, anti-human, mouse

Backgroud: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the ALD subfamily, which is involved in peroxisomal import of fatty acids and/or fatty acyl-CoAs in the organelle. All known peroxisomal ABC transporters are half transporters which require a partner half transporter molecule to form a functional homodimeric or heterodimeric transporter. The function of this peroxisomal membrane protein is unknown. However, it is speculated that it may function as a heterodimer for another peroxisomal ABC transporter and, therefore, may modify the adrenoleukodystrophy phenotype. It may also play a role in the process of peroxisimilarity:Belongs to the ABC transporter family. ALD subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 ABC transmembrane type-1 domain.,similarity:Contains 1 ABC transporter domain.,subunit:Homodimer or heterodimer .,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,
