Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: ABCB1 (multidrug resistance 1 polypeptide, MDR1, Pgp) is a multispecific efflux transporter of drugs and xenobiotics. Among numerous polymorphisms in human ABCB1, the synonymous SNP 3435C > T has been associated with decreased mRNA and protein levels, via unknown mechanisms. METHODS: To search for cis-acting polymorphism affecting transcription or mRNA processing, we used 3435C > T as a marker single...
