ABCB7 Polyclonal Antibody

• Datasheet (PDF)

Optimized working dilutions depend on sample type and detection system. Titration is recommended.

The membrane-associated protein encoded by ABCB7 is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 7 is a member of the MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance as well as antigen presentation. ABCB7 encodes a half-transporter involved in the transport of heme from the mitochondria to the cytosol. With iron/sulfur cluster precursors as its substrates, this protein may play a role in metal homeostasis. Mutations in ABCB7 have been associated with mitochondrial iron accumulation and isodicentric (X) (q13) and sideroblastic anemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for ABCB7.
