Acyl-CoA thioesterase activity of peroxisomal ABC protein ABCD1 is required for the transport of very long-chain acyl-CoA into peroxisomes

Abstract The ABCD1 protein, one of the four ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins in subfamily D, is located on the peroxisomal membrane and is involved in the transport of very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA)-CoA into peroxisomes. Its mutation causes X-linked adrenoleukodystophy (X-ALD): an inborn erro...
