Characterizing drug interactions in the substrate binding pocket of the P-glycoprotein multidrug efflux pump

P-glycoprotein (Pgp, ABCB1) is a polyspecific efflux transporter implicated in multidrug resistance in human cancers. In this study, tetramethylrhodamine-5-carbonyl azide (AzTMR) was covalently crosslinked to the Pgp drug binding pocket with a stoichiometry of 1. The Pgp-AzTMR adduct was functionall...
