Multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABCC1 gene.The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra-and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1 MDR/TAP MRP ALD OABP GCN20 White). This full transporter is a member of the MRP subfamily which is involved in multi-drug resistance.
