Figure 1: The structure of P-glycoprotein: The structure of P-glycoprotein that transports drugs out of the cell, which is a process that requires the presence of two ATP-binding domains. These domains are a defining characteristic of this family of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. The exact mechanism of drug effl ux is not well understood, but might involve either direct transport out of the cytoplasm or redistribution of the drug as it transverses the plasma membrane. AEDs, anti-epileptic drugs
