BCH4024 101424 OC F24 E2 Q33: In the disease Cystic Fibrosis (CF) a chloride channel (CFTR) is defective, which results in reduced Cl− and water movement across the plasma membrane. In the lungs, this is serious because mucus builds up leading to colonization by infectious bacteria. If you learn that the CFTR is a member of the family of ABC transporters, which of the following statements about CFTR and ABC transporters would be accurate? CFTR and other ABC transporters share a common mechanism of using ATP hydrolysis. CFTR operates exclusively in transporting organic substances. ABC transporters generally function via passive diffusion. Mutations in CFTR lead to abnormal ion movement
