Three novel ABCC5 splice variants in human retina and their role as regulators of ABCC5 gene expression

摘要

BackgroundThe ABCC5 gene encodes an organic anion pump of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family, subclass C. The exact physiological function of ABCC5 however is not known. Here, we have isolated three novel ABCC5 splice variants and characterized their role in the regulation of ABCC5 gene expression.
