What is the function of this protein?
Catalyzes the translocation of specific phospholipids from the cytoplasmic to the extracellular/lumenal leaflet of membrane coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP (PubMed:24097981, PubMed:35974019).  Thereby, participates in phospholipid transfer to apolipoproteins to form nascent high density lipoproteins/HDLs (PubMed:14754908).  Transports preferentially phosphatidylcholine over phosphatidylserine (PubMed:24097981).  May play a similar role in the efflux of intracellular cholesterol to apolipoproteins and the formation of nascent high density lipoproteins/HDLs (PubMed:10533863, PubMed:14754908, PubMed:24097981, PubMed:35974019).  Translocates phospholipids from the outer face of the plasma membrane and forces it through its gateway and annulus into an elongated hydrophobic tunnel in its extracellular domain (PubMed:35974019).
What are the official names of this protein?
Phospholipid-transporting ATPase ABCA1, ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 1, ATP-binding cassette transporter 1, ABC-1, ATP-binding cassette 1, Cholesterol efflux regulatory protein.
What is the protein family that this protein belongs to?
Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCA family.
What are the subcellular locations of this protein?
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Endosome.
