Interestingly, a G185V mutation in human Pgp (equivalent to Gly-181 of mouse Pgp, a glycine that bends helix TM3, supplemental Fig. S6) is well studied and shown to improve the coupling between ATP hydrolysis and transport (72). Login to comment

The suggested hinge role played by Gly-346 of human Pgp can also explain why the ATPase activity can only be significantly reduced by a mutation at this particular position but not elsewhere along the helix TM6 (73) even when other glycines in TM6 were targeted (G341C and G360C) (73).
