Oligomerization Domain of the Multidrug Resistance–Associated Transporter ABCG2 and Its Dominant Inhibitory Activity
1 May 2007
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of human ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCG2 in cancer cells causes multidrug resistance by effluxing anticancer drugs. ABCG2 is considered as a half transporter and is thought to function as a homodimer. However, recent evidence suggests that it may exist as a higher form of oligomer consisting of 12 subunits. In this study, we mapped the oligomerization domain of human ABCG2 to its...
