ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 8 is a
protein that in
humans is encoded by the ABCA8gene.[5]
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
multicellulareukaryotes. The function of this protein has not yet been determined.[5]
