P-glycoprotein 1 (permeability glycoprotein, abbreviated as P-gp or Pgp) also known as multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) or ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1) or cluster of differentiation 243 (CD243) is a glycoprotein that in humans is encoded by the ABCB1 gene.[1] P-gp is a well-characterized ABC-transporter (which transports a wide variety of substrates across extra- and intracellular membranes) of the MDR/TAP subfamily.[2]

Pgp is extensively distributed and expressed in the intestinal epithelium, hepatocytes, renal proximal tubular cells, adrenal gland and capillary endothelial cells comprising the blood-brain and blood-testis barrier.

Function

The membrane-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance. The protein encoded by this gene is an ATP-dependent drug efflux pump for xenobiotic compounds with broad substrate specificity. It is responsible for decreased drug accumulation in multidrug-resistant cells and often mediates the development of resistance to anticancer drugs. This protein also functions as a transporter in the blood–brain barrier.[3]

ABCB1 is an ATP-dependent efflux pump with broad substrate specificity. It likely evolved as a defense mechanism against harmful substances.

ABCB1 transports various substrates across the cell membrane including:

Its ability to transport the above substrates accounts for the many roles of ABCB1 including:

  • Regulating the distribution and bioavailability of drugs
    • Increased intestinal expression of P-glycoprotein can reduce the absorption of drugs that are substrates for P-glycoprotein. Thus, there is a reduced bioavailability, and therapeutic plasma concentrations are not attained. On the other hand, supratherapeutic plasma concentrations and drug toxicity may result because of decreased P-glycoprotein expression
    • Active cellular transport of antineoplastics resulting in multidrug resistance to these drugs
  • The removal of toxic metabolites and xenobiotics from cells into urine, bile, and the intestinal lumen
  • The transport of compounds out of the brain across the blood–brain barrier
  • Digoxin uptake
  • Prevention of ivermectin entry into the central nervous system
  • The migration of dendritic cells
  • Protection of hematopoietic stem cells from toxins.[2]

Structure

Pgp is a 170 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein, which includes 10-15 kDa of N-terminal glycosylation. The N-terminal half of the molecule contains 6 transmembrane domains, followed by a large cytoplasmic domain with an ATP-binding site, and then a second section with 6 transmembrane domains and an ATP-binding site that shows over 65% of amino acid similarity with the first half of the polypeptide.[4] In 2009, the first structure of a mammalian P-glycoprotein was solved (3G5U).[5] The structure was derived from the mouse MDR3 gene product heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris yeast. The structure of mouse P-gp is similar to structures of the bacterial ABC transporter MsbA (3B5W and 3B5X)Ward A, Reyes CL, Yu J, Roth CB, Chang G (2007).

Additional structures (3G60 and 3G61) of P-gp were also solved revealing the binding site(s) of two different cyclic peptide substrate/inhibitors. The promiscuous binding pocket of P-gp is lined with aromatic amino acid side chains.

Mechanism of action

Binding of a substrate and ATP molecule occur simultaneously. Following binding of each, ATP hydrolysis shifts the substrate into a position to be excreted from the cell. Release of the phosphate (from the original ATP molecule) occurs concurrently with substrate excretion. ADP is released, and a new molecule of ATP binds to the secondary ATP-binding site. Hydrolysis and release of ADP and a phosphate molecule resets the protein.

Tissue distribution

P-glycoprotein is expressed primarily in certain cell types in the liver, pancreas, kidney, colon, and jejunum.[6]

Detecting the activity of the transporter

The activity of the transporter can be determined by both membrane ATPase and cellular calcein assays.

The ABCB1 Transporter is also used to differentiate Transitional B-cells from Naive B-cells. Dyes such as Rhodamine123 and MitoTracker Dyes from Invitrogen can be used to make this differentiation.Wirths S, Lanzavecchia A (2005). "ABCB1 transporter discriminates human resting naive B cells from cycling transitional and memory B cells". Eur. J. Immunol. 35 (12): 3433–41. doi:10.1002/eji.200535364. PMID 16259010. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)

History

ABCB1 was first cloned and characterized using its ability to confer a multidrug resistance phenotype to cancer cells that had developed resistance to chemotherapy drugs.[2][7]

Radioactive verapamil can be used for measuring P-glycoprotein function with positron emission tomography.[8]
