Biological function summary
ABCD2 influences the metabolism of lipids within cells by facilitating the import of VLCFAs which are subsequently broken down through beta-oxidation inside peroxisomes. It operates as part of a peroxisomal beta-oxidation complex. This protein also shares functional similarities with other ABC family transporters such as ABCD1 though with slightly different substrate specificities. Expression of ABCD2 increases in response to certain dietary and hormonal factors indicating a role in metabolic adaptation.
Pathways
ABCD2 integrates into peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation and lipid metabolism pathways. It associates closely with ABCD1 within these pathways contributing to the regulation of fatty acid levels in cells. A deficiency in ABCD2 affects these metabolic pathways by altering VLCFA transport and utilization leading to an imbalance with downstream metabolic effects. The protein also interacts with PPAR (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors) signaling influencing lipid homeostasis.

General info
Function
ATP-dependent transporter of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family involved in the transport of very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA)-CoA from the cytosol to the peroxisome lumen (PubMed : 21145416, PubMed : 29397936). Like ABCD1 seems to have fatty acyl-CoA thioesterase (ACOT) and ATPase activities, according to this model, VLCFA-CoA as free VLCFA is transpoted in an ATP-dependent manner into peroxisomes after the hydrolysis of VLCFA-CoA mediated by the ACOT activity of ABCD2 (Probable) (PubMed : 29397936). Shows overlapping substrate specificities with ABCD1 toward saturated fatty acids (FA) and monounsaturated FA (MUFA) but has a distinct substrate preference for shorter VLCFA (C22 : 0) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) such as C22 : 6-CoA and C24 : 6-CoA (in vitro) (PubMed : 21145416). Thus, may play a role in regulation of VLCFAs and energy metabolism namely, in the degradation and biosynthesis of fatty acids by beta-oxidation (PubMed : 21145416).
