Using molecular, cell biologic, biochemical and immunomorphologic methods, we request to continue long range studies of mechanisms involved in the transfer of various organic molecules (i.e., bile acids, pigments, drugs, metabolites and others) from blood to bile and back. In particular, we seek to determine the structure, function and regulation of four bile canalicular transporters and, ultimately, their dysfunction in developmental, acquired and inheritable cholestasis: (a) Cloning, sequencing and purification of the ATP-dependent transporters for bile acids and nonbile acid organic anions in mutant budding and fisson yeast in order to generate probes for identifying and studying structure and regulation of the mammalian homologues (which, due to low abundance, have frustrated efforts at purification and cloning). (b) Preliminary evidence suggests that mdr2, the major multidrug resistance gene product in the canaliculus, has ATP-dependent phospholipid translocase activity and increases phospholipid release from cell plasma membranes. Therefore, we seek to determine how these processes are related with respect to canalicular phospholipid transport, and the possible role of mdr2 in the "vanishing bile duct syndrome". (c) Cloning, sequencing and study of the regulation of the canalicular Na+ dependent purine transporter which conserves nucleosides in hepatocytes.

利用分子、细胞生物学、生化和免疫形态学方法， 我们要求继续对参与的机制进行长期研究 各种有机分子(如胆汁酸、色素、药物、 代谢物和其他)从血液到胆汁再回来。 特别是，我们寻求确定结构、功能和监管 四个胆小管转运体，最终，它们的功能障碍 在发育性、获得性和遗传性胆汁淤积方面： (A)ATP依赖转运蛋白的克隆、测序和纯化 对于突变体萌芽中的胆汁酸和非胆汁酸有机阴离子 裂解酵母制备探针用于鉴定和研究 哺乳动物同源物的结构和调节(由于低 丰度，挫败了纯化和克隆的努力)。 (B)初步证据表明，主要的多种药物mdr2 小管中的抗性基因产物，具有ATP依赖的磷脂 转位酶活性和增加细胞质磷脂释放 膜。因此，我们试图确定这些过程是如何 与小管磷脂运输有关，以及 Mdr2在“消失胆管综合征”中的可能作用。 (C)小管Na+调控基因的克隆、测序及研究 依赖的嘌呤转运体，在肝细胞中保存核苷。
