| Abstract: | ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters have often been refractory to over-expression. Using the C41(DE3) E. coli as a host strain, membrane vesicles highly enriched (>50%) in YvcC, a previously uncharacterized ABC transporter from Bacillus subtilis homologous to P-glycoprotein multidrug transporters, were obtained. The functionality of YvcC was assessed by its high vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity and its ability to transport a fluorescent drug, the Hoechst 33342. |
