Hepatic bile salt secretion is an essential function of vertebrate liver. Rat and mouse bile salt export pump (Bsep) are adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent bile salt transporters. Mutations in human BSEP were identified as the cause of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2. BSEP protein is highly identical with its rat and mouse orthologs and has not yet been functionally characterized; the effect of BSEP mutations on its function has also not been studied. Therefore, the aim of this study was to functionally characterize human BSEP.
