ATP-binding Cassette Transporter - Methods To Characterize ABC Transporter Interactions

Methods To Characterize ABC Transporter Interactions

There are a number of assay types that allow the detection of ABC transporter interactions with endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. The complexity of assay range from relatively simple membrane assays like vesicular transport assay, ATPase assay to more complex cell based assays up to intricate in vivo detection methodologies.

Famous quotes containing the words methods, characterize and/or interactions:

    The greatest part of our faults are more excusable than the methods that are commonly taken to conceal them.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Solidity, caution, integrity, efficiency. Lack of imagination, hypocrisy. These qualities characterize the middle classes in every country, but in England they are national characteristics.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    The exercise of power is determined by thousands of interactions between the world of the powerful and that of the powerless, all the more so because these worlds are never divided by a sharp line: everyone has a small part of himself in both.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)
