Abstract excerpt
The conjugate export pump in the hepatocyte canalicular membrane is, together with the ATP-dependent bile salt export pump, one of the two major pumps determining canalicular anion secretion and bile flow. The so-called bile salt-independent bile flow is largely driven by the cmrp/cmoat gene-encoded conjugate export pump, as indicated by the markedly reduced bile flow in the GY/TR- (11, 13-16) and the EHBR mutant...
