ABCA1 and ABCG1 or ABCG4 act sequentially to remove cellular cholesterol and generate cholesterol-rich HDL

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Recent developments in lipid metabolism have shown the importance of ATP binding cassette transporters (ABCs) in controlling cellular and total body lipid homeostasis. ABCA1 mediates the transport of cholesterol and phospholipids from cells to lipid-poor

Conservation of structure and mechanism in primary and secondary transporters exemplified by SiaP, a sialic acid binding virulence factor from Haemophilus influenzae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Extracytoplasmic solute receptors (ESRs) are important components of solute uptake systems in bacteria, having been studied extensively as parts of ATP binding cassette transporters.

Serum amyloid A generates high density lipoprotein with cellular lipid in an ABCA1- or ABCA7-dependent manner

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Serum amyloid A (SAA) is an amphiphilic helical protein that is found associated with plasma HDL in various pathological conditions, such as acute or chronic inflammation. Cellular lipid release and generation of HDL by this protein were investigated, in

Structure and function of the bacterial heterodimeric ABC transporter CydDC: stimulation of ATPase activity by thiol and heme compounds. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In Escherichia coli, the biogenesis of both cytochrome bd-type quinol oxidases and periplasmic cytochromes requires the ATP-binding cassette-type cysteine/GSH transporter, CydDC.

Phospholipid transfer protein deficiency ameliorates diet-induced hypercholesterolemia and inflammation in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2008
Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) facilitates the transfer of phospholipids from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins into HDL. PLTP has been shown to be an important factor in lipoprotein metabolism and atherogenesis. Here, we report that chronic high-fat,

Proton Motive Force-Dependent Hoechst 33342 Transport by the ABC Transporter LmrA of Lactococcus lactis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The fluorescent compound Hoechst 33342 is a substrate for many multidrug resistance (MDR) transporters and is widely used to characterize their transport activity.

Heterogeneity of high density lipoprotein generated by ABCA1 and ABCA7

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
The assembly of HDL by helical apolipoprotein and cellular lipid was studied using HEK293 cells to which ecdysone-inducible human ABCA1 or human ABCA7 was transfected.

Structures and functions of mitochondrial ABC transporters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A small number of physiologically important ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are found in mitochondria. Most are half transporters of the B group forming homodimers and their topology suggests they function as exporters.

Ezetimibe normalizes metabolic defects in mice lacking ABCG5 and ABCG8

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
The ATP binding cassette transporters ABCG5 (G5) and ABCG8 (G8) limit the accumulation of neutral sterols by restricting sterol uptake from the intestine and promoting sterol excretion into bile.

Structure of ABCB1/P-Glycoprotein in the Presence of the CFTR Potentiator Ivacaftor

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
ABCB1/P-glycoprotein is an ATP binding cassette transporter that is involved in the clearance of xenobiotics, and it affects the disposition of many drugs in the body.
