Background:

ABCA9 (ATP-binding cassette, sub-family A (ABC1), member 9) is a 1,624 amino acid protein belonging to the ABC transporter superfamily and the ABCA family. The ABC1 subfamily is the only major ABC subfamily exclusive to multicellular eukaryotes. Ubiquitously expressed, with high expression in heart, brain and fetal tissues, ABCA9 is a multi-pass membrane protein that contains two ABC transporter domains and exists as five alternatively spliced isoforms. ABCA9 exhibits membrane subcellular localization and may play a role in monocyte differentiation and lipid homeostasis. ABCA9 is up-regulated during monocyte differentiation into macrophages and down-regulated by cholesterol loading of macrophages. Spanning 85 kb, ABCA9 contains 39 exons, with a non-coding first exon. ABCA9 is one of five ABC1 family members that maps to human chromosome 17q24.
