| Abstract | Studies were conducted to examine the functional role of the nucleotide-binding domains of MRP in drug resistance and drug transport in isolated membrane vesicles. In vivo studies were conducted by preparing stable transfectants of HeLa cells with wild-type MRP cDNA or MRP cDNAs which had been mutated at certain nucleotide binding domains (NBD). Stable transfectants producing equivalent amounts of the MRP encoded protein P190 were used in this study. The results demonstrated that deletions in the C-motif of NBD1 or the A-motif of NBD2 have a pronounced effect in reducing resistance levels to chemotherapeutic agents. Certain single-site mutations in lysines in these same motifs also reduce IC50 values. It has also been observed that mutation of the MRP NBDs results in an increase in drug accumulation and a reduction in drug efflux. Additional studies have been carried out in which recombinant baculovirus containing either wild-type MRP or MRP containing mutated NBDs was prepared and used to infect SF21 insect cells. Using this system we have analyzed the effects of these mutations on in vitro transport of leukotriene C4 (LTC4) 17 β-estradiol 17 (β-D-glucuronide)(E217βG) and daunomycin in membrane vesicles prepared from baculovirus infected cells. The results demonstrate that deletions and site-specific mutations in MRP NBDs greatly reduce the ATP dependent transport of all three substrates. The results of these studies conducted both in vivo and in vitro demonstrate that the NBDs of MRP function in a cooperative manner and are critical for the transport activity of the MRP encoded protein P190. These studies also identify specific lysines in NBD1 and NBD2 which are important for optimal MRP activity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
