Abstract excerpt
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are the largest family of ATP-hydrolyzing transporters, which import or export substrates across membranes, and have members in every sequenced genome. Structural studies and biochemistry highlight the contrast between the global structural similarity of homologous transporters and the enormous diversity of their substrates. How do ABC transporters evolve to carry such...
