Description
Predicted to have ATPase-coupled transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in cholesterol homeostasis and transmembrane transport. Predicted to localize to plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arteriosclerosis; familial hyperlipidemia; gallbladder disease; obesity; and sitosterolemia. Orthologous to human ABCG8 (ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 8).
