Abstract excerpt
The mammalian P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is a approximately 170-kDa membrane protein that mediates multidrug resistance in many chemotherapy-resistant tumors by effluxing toxic compounds from the cell. Pgp homologs are expressed in many organisms, from bacteria to yeast and mammals. Previous studies established a model system to analyze the function of murine, human, and Plasmodium falciparum Pgp by heterologous...
