PXA2 [YKL188C]
Peroxisomal long-chain fatty acid import protein 1; Subunit of heterodimeric peroxisomal ABC transport complex, with Pxa1p; required for import of long-chain fatty acids into peroxisomes; similar to human adrenoleukodystrophy transportesr ABCD1 and ABCD2, and ALD-related proteins; mutations in ABCD1 cause X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), a peroxisomal disorder; human ABCD1 and ABCD2 can each partially complement yeast pxa1 pxa2 double null mutant; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCD family. Peroxisomal fatty acyl CoA transporter (TC 3.A.1.203) subfamily.
