Abcc3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables ABC-type bile acid transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including bile acid and bile salt transport; response to estradiol; and response to tetrachloromethane. Acts upstream of or within canalicular bile acid transport. Located in basolateral plasma membrane. Biomarker of bilirubin metabolic disorder (multiple); cholestasis; hyperprolactinemia; kidney disease (multiple); and liver disease (multiple). Orthologous to human ABCC3 (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Abcc3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
