ATP-BINDING CASSETTE TRANSPORTERS (ABC). NOMENCLATURE, STRUCTURE, MOLECULAR DIVERSITY, FUNCTION, CONTRIBUTION TO THE FUNCTIONING OF THE XENOBIOTICS TRANSFORMATION SYSTEM (А REWIEW)
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are membrane proteins responsible for removing various substrates from cells through cell membranes using the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. The human genome codes for 48 ABC transporters, which are categorized into eight families: ABCA, ABCB, ABCC, ABCD,...
