About Abca2

Summary

Enables ATP binding activity. Involved in central nervous system myelin formation; negative regulation of lipid biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of amyloid-beta formation. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle; lysosomal membrane; and microtubule organizing center. Orthologous to human ABCA2 (ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 2).
