Background
The membrane-associated 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 MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance as well as antigen presentation. This family member functions in the translocation of peptides from the cytosol into the lysosomal lumen. Alternative splicing of this gene results in distinct isoforms which are likely to have different substrate specificities. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011],

Cellular localization
Lysosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . May be located in membrane rafts. Takes an intracellular route from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), via Golgi and early endosomes to late endosomal and lysosomal compartments (PubMed:30877195). .
Tissue expression
Highly expressed in testis, and at moderate levels in brain, spinal cord, and thyroid. Not expressed in monocytes but strongly expressed during differentiation of monocytes to dendritic cells and macrophages.
