Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for ATP-binding cassette sub-family G member 2(ABCG2) detection. Tested with WB in Mouse;Rat.

ABCG2(Atp-binding cassette, subfamily g, member 2) also known as ABCP, BCRP or MRX, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABCG2 gene. The ABCG2 gene encodes a membrane transporter belonging to the ATP-binding cassette(ABC) superfamily of membrane transporters, which are involved in the trafficking of biologic molecules across cell membranes. The ABCG2 protein is also a high capacity transporter for uric acid excretion in the kidney, liver, and gut. The ABCG2 gene is mapped on 4q22.1. In vitro assays of isolated membrane preparations revealed a high-capacity, vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity associated with ABCG2 expression that was stimulated by compounds known to be transported by this protein. Ozvegy et al.(2001) concluded that ABCG2 is likely functioning as a homodimer or homooligomer in this expression system since it is unlikely that putative Sf9 transport partners would be overexpressed at similarly high levels.Abcg2 transports pheophorbide-a, which occurs in various plant-derived foods and food supplements and is highly efficient in limiting its uptake from ingested food. ABCG2 is a major factor in the concentrative transfer of drugs, carcinogens, and dietary toxins to the milk of mice, cows, and humans.
