High impact information on HEATR6

  • Role of ABC1 gene in cholesterol efflux and atheroprotection [1].
  • LXRs have been shown to regulate multiple genes of lipid metabolism, including ABCA1 (formerly known as ABC1) [2].
  • Four unknown ABC1 kinases were identified, possibly involved in regulation of quinone monooxygenases [3].
  • The ABCA1 (ABC1) gene product translocates intracellular cholesterol and phospholipids out of macrophages [4].
  • At least in the phagocyte, this rearrangement may depend on the activity of an ABC ATPase, termed ABC1 in mammals and ced-7 in C. elegans [5].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of HEATR6

  • Expression of WT macrophage ABCA1 in ABC1(-/-) mice resulted in a small but significant increase in apoA-I levels starting 2 weeks after transplantation [6].
