The function of Ensembl gene identifier ENSG00000179869 (ABCA13, ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 13) is as follows. May mediate the cholesterol and gangliosides transport from the plasma membrane to intracellular vesicles in an ATP hydrolysis dependent manner, thus playing a role in their internalization by endocytic retrograde transport and may also participate in the endocytosis of synaptic vesicle in cortical neurons. .
