ABCF1 [SN07-12] Antibody

ABCF1 (ATP-binding cassette sub-family F member 1, TNF-alpha-stimulated ABC protein) is a 845 amino acid protein encoded by the human gene ABCF1. ABCF1 belongs to the ABC transporter family (EF3 subfamily) and contains two ABC transporter domains. 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) . Unlike other members of the superfamily, this protein lacks the transmembrane domains which are characteristic of most ABC transporters. ABCF1 is believed to have a role in mRNA translation due to its interaction with eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2) . It is also associated with ribosomes. ABCF1 is ubiquitously expressed and can be induced with TNF. Upon DNA damage, ABCF1 is phosphorylated by either ATM or ATR.
