Interdomain loop mutation Asp190Cys of the tetracycline efflux transporter TetA(B) decreases affinity for substrate.
TetA(B), the tetracycline efflux protein from Tn10, has 12 predicted α-helices that span the Escherichia coli cytoplasmic membrane (10) and is a member of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (4). TetA(B) and related tetracycline antiporters use the bacterial transmembrane proton motive force to export one metal-tetracycline complex in exchange for one H + (12), thereby reducing the intracellular ...
متن کاملSubstitutions in the interdomain loop of the Tn10 TetA efflux transporter alter tetracycline resistance and substrate specificity.
Cysteine replacement of Asp190, Glu192 and Ser201 residues in the cytoplasmic interdomain loop of the TetA(B) tetracycline efflux antiporter from Tn10 reduces tetracycline resistance [Tamura, N., Konishi, S., Iwaki, S., Kimura-Someya, T., Nada, S. & Yamaguchi, A. (2001). J Biol Chem 276, 20330-20339]. It was found that these Cys substitutions altered the substrate specificity of TetA(B), increa...
متن کاملDetection of tetracycline resistance determinant tetA gene and antimicrobial resistance pattern in Escherichia coli isolates recovered from healthy layer chickens
Aim: The aim was to study the occurrence of tetracycline resistance determinant tetA gene, and antibacterial resistance pattern in commensal Escherichia coli recovered from healthy non-clinical layer chickens. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four cloacal swabs were obtained from 15 flocks in five different layer farms located at around Namakkal, which is a place of high-intensity layer chicken re...
متن کاملThe involvement of tetA and tetE tetracycline resistance genes in plasmid and chromosomal resistance of Aeromonas in Brazilian strains.
This study analyzed the involvement of tetA and tetE genes in the tetracycline resistance of 16 strains of genus Aeromonas, isolated from clinical and food sources. Polymerase chain reactions revealed that 37.5% of the samples were positive for tetA, and also 37.5% were tetE positive. One isolate was positive for both genes. Only the isolate A. caviae 5.2 had its resistance associated to the pr...
متن کاملResistance to Antimicrobials Mediated by Efflux Pumps in Staphylococcus aureus
Resistance mediated by efflux has been recognized in Staphylococcus aureus in the last few decades, although its clinical relevance has only been recognized recently. The existence of only a few studies on the individual and overall contribution of efflux to resistance phenotypes associated with the need of well-established methods to assess efflux activity in clinical isolates contributes grea...
