Function |
In the visual cycle, acts as an inward-directed retinoid flipase, retinoid substrates imported by ABCA4 from the extracellular or intradiscal (rod) membrane surfaces to the cytoplasmic membrane surface are all-trans-retinaldehyde (ATR) and N-retinyl-phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (NR-PE). Once transported to the cytoplasmic surface, ATR is reduced to vitamin A by trans- retinol dehydrogenase (tRDH) and then transferred to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) where it is converted to 11-cis-retinal. May play a role in photoresponse, removing ATR/NR-PE from the extracellular photoreceptor surfaces during bleach recovery (By similarity). |
Tissue Specificity |
Retinal-specific. Seems to be exclusively found in the rims of rod photoreceptor cells. |
Sub-cellular localization |
Membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Note: Localized to outer segment disk edges of rods and cones, with around one million copies/photoreceptor. |
Sequence Similarities |
Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCA family. |
