Abstract:
:Multidrug resistance in human tumour cells is often associated with increased expression of the 190kDa multidrug resistance protein, MRP1, that belongs to the ATP-binding cassette superfamily of transport proteins. MRP1 is also an efficient transporter of many organic anions. In the present study, we have mapped the epitope of the MRP1-specific murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) MRPm5 to the decapeptide (1063)FFERTPSGNL(1072) located in the cytoplasmic loop (CL6) linking transmembrane helices 13 and 14 in the third membrane spanning domain of the protein. Several amino acids in the cytoplasmic loops of MRP1 have been reported to be important for its transport function; nevertheless, MAb MRPm5 does not inhibit vesicular uptake of the high affinity substrate leukotriene C(4). None of the other MRP1-reactive MAbs described to date map to CL6 of MRP1 which in turn enhances the utility of MAb MRPm5 for both clinical and experimental investigations of this transporter.
