NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The membrane-associated 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 MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance as well as antigen presentation. This gene encodes a full transporter and member of the p-glycoprotein family of membrane proteins with phosphatidylcholine as its substrate. The function of this protein has not yet been determined; however, it may involve transport of phospholipids from liver hepatocytes into bile. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several products of undetermined function. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
ABCB4: a transporter that mediates ATP-dependent export of organic anions and drugs from the cytoplasm. Hydrolyzes ATP with low efficiency. Human ABCB4 is not capable of conferring drug resistance. Mediates the translocation of phosphatidylcholine across the canalicular membrane of the hepatocyte. Interacts with HAX1. Defects are the cause of gallstones, and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis 3, an autosomal recessive liver disorder that progresses to cirrhosis and liver failure before adulthood. Two alternatively spliced human isoforms have been described.

Product Notes
The Human ABCB4 abcb4 (Catalog #AAA9426458) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9426458 ELISA Kit recognizes Human ABCB4. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Multidrug resistance protein 3, ELISA Kit" 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
