Abstract excerpt
One of the characteristics of multidrug-resistant mammalian cells is the presence of a glycoprotein of approximately Mr 170,000 in their cell membrane. Termed P-glycoprotein, this glycoprotein is thought to be the gene product of an amplified gene cloned and sequenced from a cell line (LZ) which is highly resistant to Adriamycin and cross-resistant to actinomycin D, colchicine, and vincristine. Resistance to...
