Abstract excerpt
In multidrug-resistant mouse J774.2 cells, the differential overproduction of functionally distinct phosphoglycoprotein isoforms reflects the amplification or transcriptional activation or both of two mdr gene family members, mdr1a and mdr1b. The mdr1a gene is a complex transcriptional unit whose expression is associated with multiple transcript sizes. Independently selected multidrug-resistant J774.2 cell lines...
