Multidrug resistance associated proteins in multidrug resistance
Multidrug resistance proteins (MRPs) are members of the C family of a group of proteins named ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. These ABC transporters together form the largest branch of proteins within the human body. The MRP family comprises of 13 members, of which MRP1 to MRP9 are the major transporters indicated to cause multidrug resistance in tumor cells by extruding anticancer dru...
متن کاملMultidrug Resistance in Infants and Children
Bacterial infections may cause disease and death. Infants and children are often subject to bacterial infections. Antimicrobials kill bacteria protecting the infected patients andreducing the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by bacteria. The antibiotics may lose their antibacterial activity when they become resistant to a bacteria. The resistance to different antibiotics in a bacteria is ...
متن کاملDynamic multidrug recognition by multidrug transcriptional repressor LmrR
LmrR is a multidrug transcriptional repressor that controls the expression of a major multidrug transporter, LmrCD, in Lactococcus lactis. However, the molecular mechanism by which LmrR binds to structurally unrelated compounds and is released from the promoter region remains largely unknown. Here, we structurally and dynamically characterized LmrR in the apo, compound-bound and promoter-bound ...
متن کاملMultidrug Recognition 151 The Ostensible Paradox of Multidrug Recognition
The ability of multidrug-efflux transporters to recognize scores of dissimilar organic compounds has always been considered paradoxical because of its apparent contradiction to some of the basic dogmas of biochemistry. In order to understand, at least in principle, how a protein can recognize multiple compounds, we analysed the transcriptional regulator of the Bacillus subtilis multidrug transp...
متن کاملAudiological Evaluation of Patients Taking Kanamycin for Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis
Introduction: The incidence of multidrug resistant tuberculosis is increasing in developing countries. Aminoglycosides are an integral part of second-line drugs, however ototoxicity is a major limitation for their use. This study aims to determine the extent of hearing loss in patients taking one of the commonly prescribed drugs for Multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), Kanamycin, at a Gov...
