Structures of the human peroxisomal fatty acid transporter ABCD1 in a lipid environment
2021-09-04
Abstract excerpt
The peroxisomal very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) transporter ABCD1 is central to cellular fatty acid catabolism and lipid biosynthesis. Its dysfunction underlies toxic cytosolic accumulation of VLCFAs, progressive nervous system demyelination, and neurological impairments including the potentially fatal disease X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD). Molecular details underlying substrate recognition and transpor...
