PMP70 Antibody

70 kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70), also called ATP-binding cassette sub-family D member 3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABCD3 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. The gene was assigned to human chromosome 1p21-p22 by in situ hybridization. This peroxisomal membrane protein likely plays an important role in peroxisome biogenesis. Mutations have been associated with some forms of Zellweger syndrome, a heterogeneous group of peroxisome assembly disorders.
