Abstract excerpt
ABCG2/MXR/ABCP1/BCRP is a member of the ATP-binding cassette membrane transporter, which consists of six transmembrane regions and one ATP-binding cassette. The transporter is known to be involved in the efflux of various anticancer compounds such as mitoxantrone, doxorubicin and topoisomerase I inhibitor. In this study, we analyzed the effects of polymorphisms in ABCG2, V12M and Q141K on transporter function....
