We presently report the cloning of cDNA sequences encoding the novel rat ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter Abca5 and the orthologous human transporter, recently designated as ABCA5. Furthermore, the existence of a novel non-translated exon of the ABCA5 gene, previously assigned to an ABCA gene cluster in the chromosomal region 17q24.2-3, is demonstrated. Abca5 and ABCA5 cDNAs are predicted to...
