NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
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. This peroxisomal membrane protein likely plays an important role in peroxisome biogenesis. Mutations have been associated with some forms of Zellweger syndrome, a heterogeneous group of peroxisome assembly disorders. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Function: Probable transporter. The nucleotide-binding fold acts as an ATP-binding subunit with ATPase activity. Ref.11
Subunit structure: Can form heterodimers with ABCD1/ALD and ABCD2/ALDR. Dimerization is necessary to form an active transporter. Interacts with PEX19. Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10
Subcellular location: Peroxisome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Ref.10.
Miscellaneous: Mutation in ABCD3 have been found in two individuals affected by Zellweger syndrome. However, the role of ABCD3 in the causation of Zellweger syndrome remains uncertain.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCD family. Peroxisomal fatty acyl CoA transporter (TC 3.A.1.203) subfamily. [View classification]Contains 1 ABC transmembrane type-1 domain.Contains 1 ABC transporter domain.

Product Notes
The ABCD3 abcd3 (Catalog #AAA416703) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The ABCD3 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's ABCD3 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ABCD3 abcd3 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ABCD3, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
