ATP-binding cassette transporters, atherosclerosis, and inflammation.
Although recent genome-wide association studies have called into question the causal relationship between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and cardiovascular disease, ongoing research in animals and cells has produced increasing evidence that cholesterol efflux pathways mediated by ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters and HDL suppress atherosclerosis. These differing perspec...
متن کاملHuman ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) Transporters: A Phylogenetic Investigation
Till date the largest known family of transporters is ABC transporter superfamily. The genes that encode ABC genes are widely dispersed in genome and show a high degree of amino acid sequence identity among eukaryotes. Phylogenetic analysis has allowed the gene superfamily divided into seven subfamilies containing 49 members of proteins in human. Despite the immense amount of biochemical studie...
متن کاملEvolution of the ATP-binding-cassette transmembrane transporters of vertebrates.
The ATP-binding-cassette transmembrane transporters (ABC transporters) known from vertebrates belong to four major subfamilies: (1) the P-glycoproteins (Pgp); (2) the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulators (CFTR); (3) the Tap proteins encoded with the major histocompatibility complex of mammals; and (4) the peroxisomal membrane proteins. Both Pgp and CFTR have a structure suggesti...
متن کاملPharmacogenetics of ATP-binding cassette transporters in cancer and chemotherapy.
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters belong to the largest known transporter gene family and translocate a variety of substrates including chemotherapy agents. ABC multidrug transporter expression has been implicated in tumor cell resistance to anticancer therapy, altered disposition of chemotherapy drugs, and associated chemotherapy toxicity. More recently, genetic heterogeneity has bee...
متن کاملReview. Structure and mechanism of ATP-binding cassette transporters.
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters constitute a large superfamily of integral membrane proteins that includes both importers and exporters. In recent years, several structures of complete ABC transporters have been determined by X-ray crystallography. These structures suggest a mechanism by which binding and hydrolysis of ATP by the cytoplasmic, nucleotide-binding domains control the confo...
