The 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 کاملThe Conformational Transition Pathways of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter BtuCD Revealed by Targeted Molecular Dynamics Simulation
BtuCD is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporters in Escherichia coli that imports vitamin B(12) into the cell by utilizing the energy of ATP hydrolysis. Crystal structures of BtuCD and its homologous protein HI1470/1 in various conformational states support the "alternating access" mechanism which proposes the conformational transitions of the substrate translocation pathway at transm...
متن کاملIn vitro folding and assembly of the Escherichia coli ATP-binding cassette transporter, BtuCD.
Studies on membrane protein folding have focused on monomeric α-helical proteins and a major challenge is to extend this work to larger oligomeric membrane proteins. Here, we study the Escherichia coli (E. coli) ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter that imports vitamin B(12) (the BtuCD protein) and use it as a model system for investigating the folding and assembly of a tetrameric membrane pr...
متن کاملThe ATP hydrolysis cycle of the nucleotide-binding domain of the mitochondrial ATP-binding cassette transporter Mdl1p.
The ABC transporter Mdl1p, a structural and functional homologue of the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) plays an important role in intracellular peptide transport from the mitochondrial matrix of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To characterize the ATP hydrolysis cycle of Mdl1p, the nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. ...
