This predoctoral training grant, supported by the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program (BCRP) of the Office of the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP), aims to study the possible role of membrane transporters in pleitropic drug resistance, using a combination of molecular biological, biochemical, and biophysical methods. The third year of funding was spent in further characterization of the Plasmodium falciparum Chloroquine Transporter (PfCRT), a member of a ...
This predoctoral training grant, supported by the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program (BCRP) of the Office of the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP), aims to study the possible role of ABC transporters in pleitropic drug resistance, using a combination of molecular biological, biochemical, and biophysical methods. The second year of funding was spent working with a member of a drug/metabolite transporter superfamily called the Plasmodium falciparum Chloroquine ...
