Immunohistochemistry (PFA perfusion fixed frozen sections) - Anti-ABCA4 antibody [EPR26543-66] (AB303504)
Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of mouse retina cells labelling ABCA4 (Green) with ab303504 at 1/50 dilution. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Alexa Fluor® 488 conguated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (ab150081) preadsorbed, was used as the secondary antibody for the primary at a 1/1000 dilution. Anti-MAP2 mouse monoclonal antibody (ab11267) (Red) was used to counterstain at a 1/500 dilution, with Alexa Fluor® 594 conguated Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (ab150120) as the secondary (1/1000 dilution). DAPI (Blue) was used as the nuclear counterstain.
For negative (-ve) control 1, ab303504 (1/50 dilution) was used with secondary ab150120 (1/1000 dilution) and -ve control 2 used ab11267 (1/500 dilution) with secondary ab150081 (1/1000 dilution).

Biological function summary
ABCA4 has an important function in the clearance of retinal pigments and it operates as part of a larger complex with other visual cycle proteins. Its activity prevents the accumulation of toxic substances that can damage photoreceptors. ABCA4's transport activity is ATP-dependent meaning it requires energy from ATP hydrolysis to perform its duties. This energy consumption highlights the protein's dynamic role in retinal health and visual processes.
Pathways
ABCA4 is an important component in the visual cycle and the retinoid cycle pathway in rods and cones. These pathways are vital for regenerating visual pigments and ensuring proper vision. ABCA4 works alongside related proteins like RPE65 and RDH12 both of which also contribute to retinoid processing and photoreceptor function. The proper flow of retinoids and prevention of toxic buildup depend heavily on ABCA4 and these associated proteins.
