Retinoid Binding Properties of Nucleotide Binding Domain 1 of the Stargardt Disease-associated ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) Transporter, ABCA4 [PDF]
The retina-specific ATP binding cassette transporter, ABCA4 protein, is associated with a broad range of inherited macular degenerations, including Stargardt disease, autosomal recessive cone rod dystrophy, and fundus flavimaculatus. In order to understand its role in retinal transport in rod out segment discs, we have investigated the interactions of ...

Novel Gene Mutation in a Korean Patient with X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy Presenting with Addison's Disease [PDF]
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) occurs due to mutations in the ABCD1 gene that encodes the peroxisomal membrane protein peroxisomal transporter ATP-binding cassette sub-family D member 1 (ABCD1).

Scavenger Receptor-BI Inhibits ATP-binding Cassette Transporter 1- mediated Cholesterol Efflux in Macrophages [PDF]
Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) facilitates the efflux of cellular cholesterol to plasma high density lipoprotein (HDL). Recently, the ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABC1) was identified as a key mediator of cholesterol efflux to apolipoproteins and HDL. The goal of the present study was to determine a possible interaction between the SR-BI and ABC1

Reversal of ABCB1-related multidrug resistance by ERK5-IN-1
Background Inhibition of ABC transporters is considered the most effective way to circumvent multidrug resistance (MDR). In the present study, we evaluated the MDR modulatory potential of ERK5-IN-1, a potent extracelluar signal regulated kinase 5 (ERK5 ...
