Abcc2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables ABC-type transporter activity; bilirubin transmembrane transporter activity; and protein domain specific binding activity. Involved in several processes, including carboxylic acid transport; cellular response to cytokine stimulus; and cellular response to dexamethasone stimulus. Located in brush border membrane and intracellular canaliculus. Used to study Dubin-Johnson syndrome; bilirubin metabolic disorder; cholestasis; end stage renal disease; and epilepsy. Biomarker of bilirubin metabolic disorder; cholestasis; liver disease (multiple); status epilepticus; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in bilirubin metabolic disorder (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); leukemia (multiple); and liver disease (multiple). Orthologous to human ABCC2 (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 2). [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 Abcc2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
