ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily G - CISMeF
ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily GMeSH Descriptor
Preferred Label : ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily G;
MeSH definition : A subfamily of ATP binding cassette transporters that function primarily in the transport
of lipids and STEROLS across the CELL MEMBRANE. They also export UREA and various
drugs resulting in MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE. They are smaller than most other ATP binding
cassette proteins, consisting of six transmembrane alpha helices and a distinct N-terminal
cytoplasmic ATP-binding domain, and function as homo- or heterodimers with other ABCG
transporters.;
MeSH synonym : ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Sub Family G; ABCG Proteins; ABCG Transporters; ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Sub-Family G; ABCG Transporter; Transporter, ABCG;
