Abstract excerpt
P-Glycoproteins (P-gps) encoded by the mouse mdr1 and mdr3 (Phe939, mdr3F) genes confer distinct drug resistance profiles. While the mdr1 and mdr3F clones confer comparable levels of vinblastine (VBL) resistance, mdr3F confers actinomycin D (ACT) resistance levels 2-fold greater than mdr1, while mdr1 confers resistance to colchicine at levels 7-fold greater than mdr3F. We wished to identify in chimeric proteins...
