Expression of the retina-specific flippase, ABCA4, in epidermal keratinocytes

2016-02-18

Abstract excerpt

ATP-binding cassette, sub-family A, member 4 (ABCA4) is a photoreceptor transmembrane protein that is responsible for flipping N-retinylidene-phosphatidylethanolamine, a key intermediate in the visual cycle, from the lumen to the cytoplasmic leaflet of photoreceptor outer segment disks. Mutations in ABCA4 cause a build-up of toxic retinoids resulting in a variety of retinal degenerative phenotypes, including Star...
