Supplementary information

ABCB11 also known as BSEP (bile salt export pump) is a protein that functions as an ATP-binding cassette transporter. It is encoded by the ABCB11 gene and has an approximate molecular mass of 160 kDa. BSEP is mainly expressed in the liver specifically on the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes. It facilitates the flow of bile acids from liver cells into the bile canaliculi playing an important role in bile acid homeostasis and detoxification processes within the liver.
Biological function summary

BSEP is essential for the transport of bile acids which are important components of bile necessary for the digestion and absorption of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins in the small intestine. BSEP functions as a homodimer and operates by using energy derived from ATP hydrolysis to export bile acids into bile. Malfunction of BSEP can impact bile flow and lead to severe liver conditions as it is the primary bile acid transporter at the canalicular membrane.

Pathways

BSEP's activity is integral to the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids. It works in conjunction with other transporters such as NTCP (sodium-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide) and OSTα/β (organic solute transporter alpha-beta). These transporters play roles in the bile acid enterohepatic system contributing to liver-bile-gut circulation. Disruption in BSEP function can alter the FXR (farnesoid X receptor) signaling pathway critical in maintaining the balance of bile acid synthesis and metabolism.

Mutations or functional deficiencies in BSEP are linked to progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 (PFIC2) and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). These disorders are characterized by impaired bile flow and accumulation of bile acids in the liver. BSEP dysfunction may also interact with other proteins such as MDR3 (multidrug resistance protein 3) which is involved in phospholipid transport and bile formation contributing further to liver pathology.

Target data

Catalyzes the transport of the major hydrophobic bile salts, such as taurine and glycine-conjugated cholic acid across the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes in an ATP-dependent manner, therefore participates in hepatic bile acid homeostasis and consequently to lipid homeostasis through regulation of biliary lipid secretion in a bile salts dependent manner (PubMed : 15791618, PubMed : 16332456, PubMed : 18985798, PubMed : 19228692, PubMed : 20010382, PubMed : 20398791, PubMed : 22262466, PubMed : 24711118, PubMed : 29507376, PubMed : 32203132). Transports taurine-conjugated bile salts more rapidly than glycine-conjugated bile salts (PubMed : 16332456). Also transports non-bile acid compounds, such as pravastatin and fexofenadine in an ATP-dependent manner and may be involved in their biliary excretion (PubMed : 15901796, PubMed : 18245269).
