  • Publication number: 20150018229
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polymorphic MRP-1 polynucleotide, genes or vectors comprising the polynucleotides and a host cell genetically engineered with the polynucleotide or gene. Also provided are methods for producing molecular variant polypeptides, cells capable of expressing a molecular variant polypeptide and a polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide or the gene or obtainable by the method or cells produced herein. Also provided is an antibody to the polypeptide, a transgenic animal, and a solid support comprising one or a plurality of the provided polynucleotides, genes, vectors, polypeptides, antibodies or host cells. Furthermore, methods of identifying a polymorphism, identifying and obtaining a pro-drug or drug or an inhibitor are also provided. In addition, the invention relates to methods for producing a pharmaceutical composition, diagnosing a disease and detection of the polynucleotide.

  • Publication number: 20050227249
    Abstract: Described are general means and methods of diagnosing and treating the phenotypic spectrum as well as the overlapping clinical characteristics with several forms of inherited abnormal expression and/or function of the Multi Drug Resistance-1 (MDR-1) gene. In particular, polynucleotides of molecular variant MDR-1 genes which, for example, are associated with unsufficient and/or altered uptake of drugs by a target cell, and vectors comprising such polynucleotides are provided. Furthermore, host cells comprising such polynucleotides or vectors and their use for the production of variant MDR-1 proteins are described. In addition, variant MDR-1 proteins and antibodies specifically recognizing such proteins as well as concerns transgenic non-human animals comprising the above-described polynucleotide or vectors are provided.
