About Abcg2

Chromosome 6: 58,561,508-58,672,661 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000999.3

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 312 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 42 phenotypes. Broad expression in kidney adult (RPKM 44.7), placenta adult (RPKM 44.) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

The membrane-associated protein encoded by this gene is included in 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 White subfamily. Alternatively referred to as a breast Cancer resistance protein, the human protein functions as a xenobiotic transporter which may play a major role in multi-drug resistance. This protein likely serves as a cellular defense mechanism in response to mitoxantrone and anthracycline exposure. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
