Extracellular mutation induces an allosteric effect across the membrane and hampers the activity of MRP1 (ABCC1)

Abstract Dynamic conformational changes play a major role in the function of proteins, including the ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC) transporters. Multidrug Resistance Protein 1 (MRP1) is an ABC exporter that protects cells from toxic molecules. Overexpression of MRP1 has been shown to confer Multidrug R...
