Abstract excerpt
P-glycoproteins (P-gp) cause the efflux of a wide variety of unrelated hydrophobic compounds out of cells. However, the locations of the sites at which different classes of molecules initially interact with the protein are not well defined. A unique system was developed to search for P-gp drug-interaction domains using mutational analysis. The strategy is based upon identifying mutations that cause a decrease in...
