Introduction

ABCG2 is a transmembrane multidrug transporter which moves molecules across the intra-cellular membrane and out of the cell by utilizing ATP. These transporters are usually seen in apical membranes found in the liver and kidneys in order to move xenobiotics (undesirables) out of the cells. They also excrete the vitamins riboflavin and biotin into breast milk.
