    Background
    Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP/ABCG2) is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter belonging to the G subfamily, encoded by the ABCG2 gene on chromosome 4q22. It is a half-transporter composed of a single nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) with conserved ATP-binding motifs (Walker A, Walker B, ABC signature) and a transmembrane domain (TMD) with six α-helices. ABCG2 functions as a homodimer or higher-order oligomer to form an active transporter. It features an extended extracellular loop between TM5 and TM6 and lacks a large intracellular coupling loop, both contributing to substrate recognition. BCRP mediates ATP-dependent efflux of a broad spectrum of substrates, including chemotherapeutics (mitoxantrone, topotecan), dietary compounds, toxins, uric acid, and porphyrins. It is highly expressed at physiological barriers and excretory tissues, such as the intestinal epithelium, liver canalicular membrane, kidney proximal tubules, placenta, mammary gland, and blood-brain barrier, where it limits xenobiotic absorption and promotes elimination. ABCG2 plays a major role in multidrug resistance in cancers by actively exporting drugs, complicating chemotherapy. Genetic polymorphisms, such as the Q141K variant, reduce ABCG2 function and are linked to hyperuricemia and gout.
