MRP2 also known as ABCC2 or MRP-2 transporter is an ATP-binding cassette transporter. This protein with a molecular mass of about 190 kDa is widely expressed in tissues such as the liver kidney and intestine. MRP2 plays a role in drug and metabolite transport moving various organic anions across cellular membranes. It locates to the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes where it functions in secreting conjugated bilirubin and drugs into bile.
Biological function summary
MRP2 contributes to cellular detoxification processes. It does not form part of a larger protein complex but works as an independent entity. MRP2 protein actively transports conjugated substances out of cells protecting tissues from potential damage from toxins drugs and other organic anions. This transporter mediates the excretion of glucuronide sulfate and glutathione conjugates playing an important role in phase III of drug metabolism.
Pathways
MRP2 transporter is integral to xenobiotic metabolism. It interconnects with the conjugation pathways that prepare compounds for excretion. The pathway functions with cytochrome P450 enzymes and other related transport proteins like MDR1 facilitating the secretion of detoxified metabolites. MRP2 activity influences pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics by modulating drug disposition and excretion.
MRP2 is associated with Dubin-Johnson syndrome and cholestasis. Dubin-Johnson syndrome arises from mutations in the ABCC2 gene leading to defective bilirubin excretion and jaundice. Cholestasis involves impaired bile excretion where MRP2 and possibly related proteins like BSEP play roles in bile salt export. Understanding MRP2 functioning aids in assessing risk and treatment strategies for these conditions.
