Mouse monoclonal antibody [3F4] to ABCA4 (Rim Protein)May play a role in photoresponse. Retinoids, and most likely retinal, are the natural substrates for transport by abcr in rod outer segments. May act in the visual cycle to flip PE-all-trans-retinal adducts from the lumenal to the cytosolic face of the disk membrane, move free all-trans-retinal from the lipid phase of the disk membrane to a juxtamembrane location, or possibly reorient all-trans-retinal in the bilayer.
