ABCA5 Resides in Lysosomes, and ABCA5 Knockout Mice Develop Lysosomal Disease-Like Symptoms

Abstract excerpt

ABCA5 is a member of the ABC transporter A subfamily, and a mouse orthologue (mABCA5) in newborn mouse brain and neural cells was identified by reverse transcription-PCR. Full-length cDNA cloning revealed that mABCA5 consists of 1,642 amino acid residues and that its putative structure is that of a full-type ABC transporter having two sets of six transmembrane segments and a nucleotide binding domain....
