ABCA7 - ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 7 Gene
Also Known as AD9; ABCX; ABCA-SSN
Species: Homo sapiens
About ABCA7
This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 164 orthologues, 11 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in bone marrow (RPKM 11.7), spleen (RPKM 9.6) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
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 ABC1 subfamily. Members of the ABC1 subfamily comprise the only major ABC subfamily found exclusively in multicellular eukaryotes. This full transporter has been detected predominantly in myelo-lymphatic tissues with the highest expression in peripheral leukocytes, thymus, spleen, and bone marrow. The function of this protein is not yet known; however, the expression pattern suggests a role in lipid homeostasis in cells of the immune system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
