adeabc efflux pump genes in multidrug resistant acinetobacter baumannii isolates
conclusions adeabc efflux system plays a vital role in multidrug resistance in clinical a. baumannii isolates. it was noted that the most important gene responsible for multidrug resistance within this system was the adeb gene especially in carbapenems resistance. methods this study was conducted on 84 multidrug resistant and 13 carbapenem-susceptible a. baumannii isolates obtained from burn an...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of the Neisseria gonorrhoeae MtrD Inner Membrane Multidrug Efflux Pump
Neisseria gonorrhoeae is an obligate human pathogen and the causative agent of the sexually-transmitted disease gonorrhea. The control of this disease has been compromised by the increasing proportion of infections due to antibiotic-resistant strains, which are growing at an alarming rate. The MtrCDE tripartite multidrug efflux pump, belonging to the hydrophobic and amphiphilic efflux resistanc...
متن کاملStructure of the periplasmic adaptor protein from a major facilitator superfamily (MFS) multidrug efflux pump
Periplasmic adaptor proteins are key components of bacterial tripartite efflux pumps. The 2.85 Å resolution structure of an MFS (major facilitator superfamily) pump adaptor, Aquifex aeolicus EmrA, shows linearly arranged α-helical coiled-coil, lipoyl, and β-barrel domains, but lacks the fourth membrane-proximal domain shown in other pumps to interact with the inner membrane transporter. The ada...
متن کاملThe assembled structure of a complete tripartite bacterial multidrug efflux pump.
Bacteria like Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa expel drugs via tripartite multidrug efflux pumps spanning both inner and outer membranes and the intervening periplasm. In these pumps a periplasmic adaptor protein connects a substrate-binding inner membrane transporter to an outer membrane-anchored TolC-type exit duct. High-resolution structures of all 3 components are available, but ...
متن کاملIdentification of a novel multidrug efflux pump of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
The impermeability of the outer membrane in combination with drug efflux are major determinants of the natural drug resistance of mycobacteria. beta-Lactams are the most widely used antibiotics for treatment of bacterial infections. However, it is unknown how beta-lactams enter Mycobacterium tuberculosis and whether efflux pumps exist that can export these drugs out of the cell. To identify the...
