Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify the extent of genetic variability in breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) in humans. We first analysed the sequence of BCRP cDNA from human livers and from human intestines phenotyped for expression of intestinal BCRP. We then determined the frequency of all known coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (cSNPs) using DNA from individuals representing 11 different ethnic populations. Nine SNPs including four non-synonymous and three synonymous cSNPs and two intronic SNPs were identified. Of the missense mutations, exon 2 SNP (G34A) resulted in a V12M change; exon 5 SNP (C421A) resulted in a Q141K substitution; exon 6 SNP (A616C) resulted in an I206L amino acid substitution; and exon 15 SNP (A1768T) resulted in a N590Y change in the BCRP protein. The two most frequent polymorphisms identified in the human population studied were the G34A and C421A transitions. There was marked variation in BCRP genotypes and allele frequencies in the different populations. BCRP mRNA was phenotyped in human small bowel intestinal samples by real-time polymerase chain reaction and BCRP protein was analysed on immunoblots of tissue from the same individuals. There was a 78-fold variation in expression of BCRP mRNA and significant variation in BCRP protein expression in human intestine. Expression of intestinal BCRP mRNA and protein was not different between persons expressing the common Gln141 allele compared to the Lys141 allele. Thus, common natural allelic variants of BCRP have been identified, and did not influence interindividual variation in expression of BCRP mRNA in human intestine, but remain to be tested for their effect on BCRP function.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
