Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionpgp-8 encodes an ATP-binding protein that is a member of the P-glycoprotein subclass of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily; PGP-8 is predicted to function as a transmembrane protein that couples energy to transport of various molecules across membranes, but as loss of pgp-8 activity via RNAi results in no obvious defects, the precise role of PGP-8 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known; pgp-8 promoter-gfp fusion proteins are expressed in adult head neurons.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00006421

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable ATPase-coupled transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Expressed in head neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); and intrahepatic cholestasis (multiple). Is an ortholog of several human genes including ABCB1 (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1); ABCB11 (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 11); and ABCB4 (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkSequence connection from [Sheps JA, Baillie DL] [040902 ck1]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
