ABCD1 (also known as ALDP) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily which functions as transporter for a wide variety of substrates. It localizes to the peroxisomal membrane. The exact function is not clear so far. Various mutations of ABCD1 cause X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD),an inherited neurodegenerative disease affecting the nervous system white matter and adrenal cortex.

ABCD4 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total ABCD4.
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 ALD subfamily, which is involved in peroxisomal import of fatty acids and/or fatty acyl-CoAs in the organelle. All known peroxisomal ABC transporters are half transporters which require a partner half transporter molecule to form a functional homodimeric or heterodimeric transporter. The function of this peroxisomal membrane protein is unknown. However, it is speculated that it may function as a heterodimer for another peroxisomal ABC transporter and, therefore, may modify the adrenoleukodystrophy phenotype. It may also play a role in the process of peroxisome biogenesis.
