Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To determine the genetic variability of multidrug resistance protein 3 (MRP3). METHODS: Genomic DNA samples from 103 Caucasians were systematically screened for genetic variations to find a potential relationship with hepatic MRP3 expression. Sequencing comprised all 31 exons, approximately 100 bp of the flanking intronic regions and 2 kb of the 5' UTR. RESULTS: In total, 51 mutations were identified....
