Plasma membrane dynamics and tetrameric organisation of ABCG2 transporters in mammalian cells revealed by single particle imaging techniques (2015)
Journal Article
Wong, K., Briddon, S. J., Holliday, N. D., & Kerr, I. D. (2016). Plasma membrane dynamics and tetrameric organisation of ABCG2 transporters in mammalian cells revealed by single particle imaging techniques. Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 1863(1), 19-29. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbamcr.2015.10.002

ABCG2 is one of three human ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters involved in the export from cells of a chemically and structurally diverse range of compounds. This multidrug efflux capability, together with a broad tissue distribution in the body...

Overcoming ABCG2-mediated drug resistance with imidazo-[1,2-b]-pyridazine-based Pim1 kinase inhibitors (2015)
Journal Article
Darby, R. A., Kerr, I., Unsworth, A., Knapp, S., & Callaghan, R. (2015). Overcoming ABCG2-mediated drug resistance with imidazo-[1,2-b]-pyridazine-based Pim1 kinase inhibitors. Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology, 76(4), 853-864. doi:10.1007/s00280-015-2858-9

Purpose Multidrug efflux pumps such as ABCG2 confer drug resistance to a number of cancer types, leading to poor prognosis and outcome. To date, the strategy of directly inhibiting multidrug efflux pumps in order to overcome drug resistance in can...

Identification of residues in ABCG2 affecting protein trafficking and drug transport, using co-evolutionary analysis of ABCG sequences (2015)
Journal Article
Kerr, I., Haider, A. J., Cox, M. H., Jones, N., Goode, A. J., Bridge, K. S., …Briggs, D. (2015). Identification of residues in ABCG2 affecting protein trafficking and drug transport, using co-evolutionary analysis of ABCG sequences.

ABCG2 is an ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporter with a physiological role in urate transport in the kidney and is also implicated in multi-drug efflux from a number of organs in the body. The trafficking of the protein and the mechanism by which i...
