Template:Cs1 config An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 9 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABCA9 gene.[1]

Function

This gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters and the encoded protein contains two transmembrane domains and two nucleotide binding folds. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intracellular membranes. This gene is a member of the ABCA subfamily and is clustered with four other ABCA subfamily members on chromosome 17q24. Transcriptional expression of this gene is induced during monocyte differentiation into macrophages and is suppressed by cholesterol import.[1]
