ABCC10
ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 10
Named by Dr Will Powers — at family level only
Gene summary
A protein-coding gene on chromosome 6 (drug and xenobiotic transporters). The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes.

ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 10
- Function (excerpt)
ATP-dependent transporter of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family that actively extrudes physiological compounds, and xenobiotics from cells. Lipophilic anion transporter that mediates ATP-dependent transport of glucuronide conjugates such as estradiol-17-beta-o-glucuronide and GSH conjugates such as leukotriene C4 (LTC4). May regulate the transport of organic compounds in testes across the blood-testis-barrier (Probable). Mediates intercellular propagation of antiviral immune signaling in early stages of infection (By similarity). In RNA virus-infected cells, oligoadenylate synthase senses viral dsRNA and generates 2',5'-oligoadenylates (2-5A) which act as second messengers to activate RNASEL and type I interferon signaling to inhibit viral replication (By similarity).
- Subcellular location
Cell membrane; Basolateral cell membrane; Basal cell membrane.
- Tissue specificity
In testis, localized to peritubular myoid cells, Leydig cells, along the basal membrane of Sertoli cells, moderately in the adluminal compartment of the seminiferous tubules, and in vascular endothelial cells.

Why its pathway is in the library
Transporters set systemic exposure to finasteride/SSRIs and clear conjugated steroid metabolites — directly relevant to both drug pharmacokinetics and Powers' clearance-centered PFS mechanism.
Written for the whole drug transporters family, not for ABCC10 specifically.
Powers’ note (his unpublished theorizing)
Powers named the ABCC transporter family (2026 summit interview, unpublished) as intracellular transporter genes implicated in metabolite clearance in his experimentally verifiable mechanism; individual ABCC members not separately named.
Mentioned in 0 corpus records
No corpus record names ABCC10 directly yet. It is in the library because it sits in a pathway the corpus tracks (Drug transporters).
