A "silent" polymorphism in the MDR1 gene changes substrate specificity.
Synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) do not produce altered coding sequences, and therefore they are not expected to change the function of the protein in which they occur. We report that a synonymous SNP in the Multidrug Resistance 1 (MDR1) gene, part of a haplotype previously linked to altered function of the MDR1 gene product P-glycoprotein (P-gp), nonetheless results in P-gp wi...
متن کاملEvaluation of G2677T/A polymorphism of MDR1 gene by polymerase chain reaction in Mazandaran province, Iran
The human MDR1 gene encodes for a P-glycoprotein (PGP), which acts as an efflux pump that transports a large variety of substrates from the inside of cells to the outside until protection against xenobiotics. The G2677T/A polymorphism in exon 21 is associated with PGP expression and function in humans. The present study was aimed to determine the frequencies of this polymorphism in a healthy po...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولAssociation of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and MDR1 Gene Polymorphism in an Ethnic Iranian Population
Background: The frequency of the multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene C3435T polymorphism differs in various ethnical populations such as Asian, African, and Caucasians populations. A silent C3435T polymorphism in exon 26 of MDR1 has been reported to be associated with a decreased expression of P-gp in TT genotypes carriers compared with CC genotypes carriers. Materials and Methods: To evaluate ...
متن کاملMDR1 Gene Polymorphism and Phenytoin Pharmacokinetics in Epilepsy
29 Epilepsy is considered one of the major public health problems and could have serious psychological and physical consequences, including mental health disorders, traumatic injury and premature death1. Epilepsy is a chronic and disabling neurologic disorder and affects approximately 1% of the population globally, especially in developing countries1,2. Although good prognosis has been seen in ...
