Related Product Information for
anti-ABCA1 antibody
Rat anti Mouse ABCA1 antibody, clone 5A1-1422 recognizes murine adenosine triphosphate (ATP) Binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1). The ABC transporters are a large family of conserved proteins that transport a wide variety of molecules across cellular membranes. ABCA1 is a member of the ABC-A sub-family, which acts as a lipid translocator. The molecule was originally identified as a scavenger receptor on macrophages and research shows that ABCA1 also plays a major role in cholesterol metabolism. ABCA1 may play an important role in protecting against cardiovascular disease. Mutations in ABCA1 gene have been associated with Tangiers disease, a genetic disorder of lipid metabolism, and familial high density lipoprotein (HDL) deficiency.

NCBI Summary for ABCA1
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 intracellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the ABC1 subfamily. Members of the ABC1 subfamily comprise the only major ABC subfamily found exclusively in multicellular eukaryotes. In humans, this protein functions as a cholesterol efflux pump in the cellular lipid removal pathway. Mutations in the human gene have been associated with Tangier's disease and familial high-density lipoprotein deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
UniProt Comments for ABCA1
ABCA1: an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter that regulates cholesterol homeostasis and insulin secretion in beta-cells, and protects against cardiovascular disease. Inactivation of ABCA1 in beta-cells markedly impairs glucose tolerance and insulin secretion in mice. Rosiglitazone, an activator of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma, upregulates ABCA1 in beta-cells. ABCA1 expression in beta-cells is required for the beneficial effects of rosiglitazone on glucose tolerance. Mediates the transport of cholesterol and phospholipids from cells to HDL apolipoproteins, modulating HDL levels and atherogenesis. Induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and repressed by ZNF202. Phosphorylation on Ser-2054 regulates phospholipid efflux. Unsaturated fatty acids destabilize ABCA1 by activating a PKC-delta pathway that phosphorylates ABCA1 serines. Defects in ABCA1 are a cause of high density lipoprotein deficiencies.
