Retinal-specific ATP-binding cassette transporter, ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 4, RIM ABC transporter, RIM protein, RmP, Stargardt disease protein
Retinal-specific ATP-binding cassette transporter encoded by the gene ABCA4 plays a critical role in the transport of retinoid substrates from the extracellular or intradiscal rod cell membranes to the cytoplasmic membrane surface for processing ultimately into vitamin A and then transferred to the retinal pigment epithelium where it is converted to 11-cis-retinal that active component needed for vision. ABCA4 is localized to the outer segments of rods and cones with a million copies per photoreceptor. ABCA4 is retinal specific protein. Mutations in ABCA4 are linked to several eye-related genetic diseases, such as forms of macular degeneration called Stargardt disease and ARMD2, as well as Retinitis pigmentosa 19, and Cone-rod dystrophy 3.
