Function | ATP-dependent transporter of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family that actively extrudes physiological compounds and xenobiotics from cells. Transports a range of endogenous molecules that have a key role in cellular communication and signaling, including cyclic nucleotides such as cyclic AMP (cAMP) and cyclic GMP (cGMP), bile acids, steroid conjugates, urate, and prostaglandins (PubMed:11856762, PubMed:12523936, PubMed:12835412, PubMed:12883481, PubMed:15364914, PubMed:15454390, PubMed:16282361, PubMed:17959747, PubMed:18300232, PubMed:26721430). Mediates the ATP-dependent efflux of glutathione conjugates such as leukotriene C4 (LTC4) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) too. The presence of GSH is necessary for the ATP-dependent transport of LTB4, whereas GSH is not required for the transport of LTC4 (PubMed:17959747). Mediates the cotransport of bile acids with reduced glutathione (GSH) (PubMed:12523936, PubMed:12883481, PubMed:16282361). Transports a wide range of drugs and their metabolites, including anticancer, antiviral and antibiotics molecules (PubMed:11856762, PubMed:12105214, PubMed:15454390, PubMed:17344354, PubMed:18300232). Confers resistance to anticancer agents such as methotrexate (PubMed:11106685). |
Cellular Location | Basolateral cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Apical cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Its localization to the basolateral or apical membranes is tissue-dependent. |

Background
ABCC4(Atp-binding cassette, subfamily c, member 4) also known as MRP4 or MOATB, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABCC4 gene. It belongs to a large family of transmembrane proteins involved in active transport of substrates out of cells. This gene is mapped to chromosome 13q32. ABCC4 acts as an independent regulator of intracellular cyclic nucleotide levels and as a mediator of cAMP-dependent signal transduction to the nucleus. The antiproliferative effect of ABCC4 inhibition was related to cAMP-dependent PKA activation and CREB phosphorylation. Pharmacologic inhibition of ABCC4 activity or knockdown of ABCC4 via RNA interference resulted in reduced migration of DCs from human skin explants and of in vitro-generated Langerhans cells. It has been found that ABCC4 contributes to migration of DCs toward draining lymph nodes and therefore has a role in the initiation of an immune response.
