Background
The protein encoded by this gene 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). This protein is a member of the White subfamily. It is involved in macrophage cholesterol and phospholipids transport, and may regulate cellular lipid homeostasis in other cell types. Six alternative splice variants have been identified.

Function
alternative products:Additional isoforms seem to exist,disease:Overexpressed in macrophages from patients with Tangier disease compared to control macrophages. Expressed in foamy macrophages within the atherosclerotic plaque. May play a role in the cholesterol metabolism of macrophages in vitro and in the atherosclerotic plaque.,function:Transporter involved in macrophage lipid homeostasis. Is an active component of the macrophage lipid export complex. Could also be involved in intracellular lipid transport processes. The role in cellular lipid homeostasis may not be limited to macrophages.,induction:Strongly induced in monocyte-derived macrophages during cholesterol influx. Conversely, mRNA and protein expression are suppressed by lipid efflux. Induction is mediated by the liver X receptor/retinoid X receptor (LXR/RXR) pathway. Not induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Repress
