Human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family [PDF]
There exist four fundamentally different classes of membrane-bound transport proteins: ion channels; transporters; aquaporins; and ATP-powered pumps. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are an example of ATP-dependent pumps. ABC transporters are ubiquitous membrane-bound proteins, present in all prokaryotes, as well as plants, fungi, yeast and ...

Structural basis for the mechanism of ABC transporters. [PDF]
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are primary transporters that couple the energy stored in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to the movement of molecules across the membrane.

Cardiac PET Imaging of ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) Transporters: Opportunities and Challenges
Adenosine triphosphate binding cassette (ABC) transporters are a broad family of membrane protein complexes that use energy to transport molecules across cells and/or intracellular organelle lipid membranes. Many drugs used to treat cardiac diseases have

Boosted coupling of ATP hydrolysis to substrate transport upon cooperative estradiol-17-beta-D-glucuronide binding in a Drosophila ATP binding cassette type-C transporter [PDF]
ATP binding cassette type-C (ABCC) transporters move molecules across cell membranes upon hydrolysis of ATP; however, their coupling of ATP hydrolysis to substrate transport remains elusive.

H-loop Histidine Catalyzes ATP Hydrolysis in the E. coli ABC-Transporter HlyB [PDF]
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters form a family of molecular motor proteins that couple ATP hydrolysis to substrate translocation across cell membranes. Each nucleotide binding domain of ABC-transporters contains a highly conserved H-loop Histidine residue, whose precise mechanistic role to motor functions has remained ...

ATP-binding cassette transporters in Escherichia coli
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are integral membrane proteins that actively transport molecules across cell membranes. In Escherichia coli they consist primarily of import systems that involve in addition to the ABC transporter itself a substrate binding protein and outer membrane receptors or porins, and a number of transporters with varied ...

Jadomycins: A potential chemotherapy for multi‐drug resistant metastatic breast cancer
Breast cancer causes the most cancer fatalities in women worldwide. Approximately one‐third of breast cancers metastasize, or spread from primary tumors to other tissues, and have a 70% 5‐year mortality rate.

Structures and functions of mitochondrial ABC transporters [PDF]
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.
