Function | [Isoform 1]: Catalyzes ATP-dependent import of organic anions such as taurocholate and estrone sulfate (PubMed:12379217). In vitro, also imports ochratoxin A (PubMed:12379217). Also mediates cholesterol efflux independent of apolipoprotein, and plays a role in sphingomyelin production in oligodendrocytes (PubMed:23560799). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K440}. Note=Predominantly expressed on the sinusoidal plasma membrane. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K440} |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed with higher expression in heart, skeletal muscle and liver (PubMed:12379217, PubMed:28882873, PubMed:29300488). Highly expressed in the superior frontal white matter and inferior temporal white matter (PubMed:12379217) |

Background
This antibody is expected to cross-react with the highly similar Human ABCA9, since the immunizing peptide differs from ABCA9 with only one residue (F8).
