PfMDR1 Transport Rates Assessed in Intact Isolated <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> Digestive Vacuoles Reflect Functional Drug Resistance Relationship with <i>pfmdr1</i> Mutations
Drug resistance often emerges from mutations in solute transporters. Single amino acid exchanges may alter functionality of transporters with ‘de novo’ ability to transport drugs away from their site of action. The PfMDR1 transporter (or P-glycoprotein 1) is located in the membrane of the digestive...
