title: Identification of a membrane glycoprotein overexpressed in murine lymphoma sublines resistant to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II).
abstract: A series of murine thymic lymphoma cell sublines was selected in vitro for resistance to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (CDDP). The level of CDDP resistance correlated with reduced drug accumulation in these cells. A rabbit antiserum was raised against the plasma membrane of a CDDP-resistant subline and used in Western blot analyses. Increased expression of a surface antigen of approximately 200 kDa was observed and found to correlate with the degree of resistance. Further biochemical and immunological studies demonstrated that this is a plasma membrane glycoprotein. However, it is different from the multidrug resistance-associated P-glycoprotein with a molecular weight of about 170,000. We have called this unique CDDP resistance-associated membrane protein CPR-200.
