Two B-type ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters localize to the plasma membrane in Thalictrum minus
Alkaloids play important roles in plant defenses against herbivores and some alkaloids have medicinal uses. Medicinal alkaloids can be purified from plant tissues or produced axenically in cell culture systems. In culture, cells generally accumulate these toxic metabolites in the vacuole; however, treatment with benzyladenine (BA) induces cultured Thalictrum minus cells to produce the isoquinol...
متن کاملATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters in human metabolism and diseases.
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily of active transporters involves a large number of functionally diverse transmembrane proteins. They transport a variety of substrates including amino acids, lipids, inorganic ions, peptides, saccharides, metals, drugs, and proteins. The ABC transporters not only move a variety of substrates into and out of the cell, but also are also involved in intrac...
متن کاملATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters in normal and pathological lung
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are a family of transmembrane proteins that can transport a wide variety of substrates across biological membranes in an energy-dependent manner. Many ABC transporters such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) are highly expressed in bronchial epithelium. This review aims to...
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 کاملATP-Binding Cassette Cholesterol Transporters and Cardiovascular Disease Structure and Function of ABC Transporters
A hallmark of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the accumulation of cholesterol in arterial macrophages. Factors that modulate circulating and tissue cholesterol levels have major impacts on initiation, progression, and regression of CVD. Four members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family play important roles in this modulation. ABCA1 and ABCG1 export excess cellula...
