Related Product Information for anti-ABCG1 antibody

ABCG1 (also designated ABC8 or human white gene), a member of the evolutionary conserved family of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, exhibits high homology with the Drosophila white gene. ABC transporters couple the energy of ATP hydrolysis to the translocation of various molecules across biological membranes. These proteins contain characteristic ATP-binding domains and transmembrane domains which form a channel-like structure for transport. ABCG1 functions to regulate cholesterol and phospholipid transport in macrophages. ABCG1 is highly expressed in several tissues, including brain, spleen, lung and placenta, and has been localized to the cell surface and intracellular compartments of cholesterol-laden macrophages.

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 White subfamily. It is involved in macrophage cholesterol and phospholipids transport, and may regulate cellular lipid homeostasis in other cell types. Six alternative splice variants have been identified.

Uniprot Description

ABCG1: Transporter involved in macrophage lipid homeostasis. Is an active component of the macrophage lipid export complex. Could also be involved in intracellular lipid transport processes. The role in cellular lipid homeostasis may not be limited to macrophages. Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCG family. Eye pigment precursor importer (TC 3.A.1.204) subfamily. 8 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
