    Summary
    Predicted to enable ABC-type xenobiotic transporter activity and lipid transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cholesterol efflux; positive regulation of cholesterol efflux; and sphingomyelin biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in basolateral plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Orthologous to human ABCA8 (ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
