Whole-genome survey of the putative ATP-binding cassette transporter family genes in Vitis vinifera. [PDF]
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein superfamily constitutes one of the largest protein families known in plants. In this report, we performed a complete inventory of ABC protein genes in Vitis vinifera, the whole genome of which has been sequenced. By

Expression and Function of ABC Transporters in Human Alveolar Epithelial Cells
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are a large superfamily of membrane transporters that facilitate the translocation of different substrates. While ABC transporters are clearly expressed in various tumor cells where they can play a role in drug ...

Analysis of ABC Transporter Gene Expression in Atherosclerosis
ABC transporters are a large family of membrane proteins that transport chemically diverse substrates across the cell membrane. Disruption of transport mechanisms mediated by ABC transporters causes the development of various diseases, including ...

The effect of silymarin on expression of selected ABC transporters in the rat
Silymarin (standardized extract from the seeds of the Silybum marianum) has been used in the supportive therapy of liver diseases and its cytoprotective activity is believed to be based on antioxidant properties.
