ABCG5 and ABCG8 require MDR2 for secretion of cholesterol into bile
Journal of Lipid Research, 2005 The major pathway for the removal of cholesterol from the body is via secretion into the bile. Three members of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) family, ABCG5 (G5), ABCG8 (G8), and ABCB4 (MDR2), are required for the efficient biliary export of sterols ...
