1 Structures of ABCB4 provide insight into phosphatidylcholine translocation. Phosphatidylcholines ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4 Homo sapiens
2 ABCB4 is expressed in hepatocytes and translocates phosphatidylcholine into bile canaliculi. Phosphatidylcholines ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4 Homo sapiens
3 Its choline moiety is stabilized by cation-pi interactions with an essential tryptophan residue, rationalizing the specificity of ABCB4 for phosphatidylcholine. Phosphatidylcholines ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4 Homo sapiens
4 Using a proteoliposome-based translocation assay with fluorescently labeled phosphatidylcholine analogs, we recapitulated the substrate specificity of ABCB4 in vitro and confirmed the role of the key tryptophan residue. Phosphatidylcholines ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4 Homo sapiens
