Abstract excerpt
Characterisation of altered glycosylation of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) found associated with the absence of a multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype in cell lines prompted an investigation to assess the role of post-translational processing in establishing P-gp efflux pump functionally. The clone A cell line used in this study displays a strong MDR phenotype mediated by high constitutive levels of expression of P-gp....
