Purification and characterisation of the yeast plasma membrane ATP binding cassette transporter Pdr11p
The ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters Pdr11p and its paralog Aus1p are expressed under anaerobic growth conditions at the plasma membrane of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and are required for sterol uptake. However, the precise mechanism by which these ABC transporters facilitate sterol movement is unknown. In this study, an overexpression and purification procedure was developed wit...
متن کاملThe role of ATP-binding cassette transporter A2 in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia multidrug resistance
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is one of the most prevalent hematologic malignancies in children. Although the cure rate of ALL has improved over the past decades, the most important reason for ALL treatment failure is multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon. The current study aims to explain the mechanisms involved in multidrug resistance of childhood ALL, and introduces ATP-binding cassette...
متن کاملA plant plasma membrane ATP binding cassette-type transporter is involved in antifungal terpenoid secretion.
ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters, which are found in all species, are known mainly for their ability to confer drug resistance. To date, most of the ABC transporters characterized in plants have been localized in the vacuolar membrane and are considered to be involved in the intracellular sequestration of cytotoxins. Working on the assumption that certain ABC transporters might be involv...
متن کاملO6-Methylguanine-DNA Methyltransferase and ATP-Binding Cassette Membrane Transporter G2 Promotor Methylation: Can Predict the Response to Chemotherapy in Advanced Breast Cancer?
Background: ATP-binding cassette membrane transporter G2 (ABCG2) gene is one of transporter family and well characterized for their association with chemoresistance. Promoter methylation is a mechanism for regulation of gene expression. O6-Methyl guanine DNA methyl transferase (MGMT) gene plays a fundamental role in DNA repair. MGMT has the ability to remove alkyl adducts from DNA at the O6 pos...
متن کاملControl of the protein and lipid content of the plasma membrane by ATP-binding cassette transporter proteins in S. Cerevisiae
Pdr5 and Yor1 are two ATP-binding cassette transporters regulated by the pleiotropic drug resistance (PDR) network in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Recent work demonstrated that a pdr5 yor1 strain confers remarkable resistance to a sphingolipid intermediate, phytosphingosine (PHS), which was surprising as loss of these transporters normally leads to elevated drug sensitivity. PHS is toxi...
