ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily B Member 10 (ABCB10) Antibody

Background

ABCB10, also known as mitochondrial ABC transporter-2, is primarily localized in the inner mitochondrial membrane and plays a critical role in mitochondrial function and heme biosynthesis. It is involved in transporting substrates required for heme production, a vital component of hemoglobin and cytochromes. ABCB10 works in coordination with other mitochondrial transporters, such as ABCB7, to ensure proper iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis and cellular redox balance. It is highly expressed in tissues with high metabolic and oxygen demands, such as the liver, heart, and erythroid cells. Dysregulation of ABCB10 has been linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress, contributing to conditions such as anemia and cardiovascular diseases. Its role in maintaining mitochondrial health highlights its importance in cellular energy metabolism.
