The role of the AcrAB-TolC pump in macrolide and ketolide susceptibility in Escherichia coli and Enterobacter aerogenes was studied. Efflux pump inhibitor restored erythromycin, clarithromycin, and telithromycin susceptibilities to multidrug-resistant isolates. No modification of telithromycin accumulation was detected in E. aerogenes acrAB or tolC derivatives compared to that in the parental s...
A study examining the influence of TolC on AcrA, AcrR, and MarR1 mutants indicates that functional TolC is required for the operation of the AcrAB efflux system and for the expression of the Mar phenotype. That the effect of TolC on the AcrAB pump is not regulatory in nature is shown by studies measuring the influence of a tolC::Tn10 insertion mutation on the expression of an acrA::lacZ reporte...
About 10% of the nalidixic acid-resistant (Nal(r)) mutants in a transposition-induced library exhibited a growth factor requirement as the result of cysH, icdA, metE, or purB mutation. Resistance in all of these mutants required a functional AcrAB-TolC efflux pump, but the EmrAB-TolC pump played no obvious role. Transcription of acrAB was increased in each type of Nal(r) mutant. In the icdA and...
The TolC protein of Escherichia coli, through its interaction with AcrA and AcrB, is thought to form a continuous protein channel that expels inhibitors from the cell. Consequently, tolC null mutations display a hypersensitive phenotype. Here we report the isolation and characterization of tolC missense mutations that direct the synthesis of mutant TolC proteins partially disabled in their effl...
OBJECTIVES Starting from the observation that Escherichia coli tolC mutations severely reduced the high-level resistance to tetracycline afforded by Tn10- and plasmid-encoded Tet(A) pumps, we studied the mechanism of this susceptibility. METHODS The MIC of tetracycline for MC4100 tolC::Tn10 and several tolC mutants carrying the Tn10 in other sites on the chromosome (thr::Tn10) was determined....
The efflux pump AcrAB is important in the antibiotic resistance and virulence of several pathogenic bacteria. We report that deletion of the Yersinia pestis AcrAB-TolC homolog leads to increased susceptibility to diverse substrates, including, though unlike in Escherichia coli, the aminoglycosides. Neither is the Y. pestis pump affected by the efflux pump inhibitor phenylalanine-arginine beta-n...
Expression of tolC and organic solvent tolerance of Escherichia coli ciprofloxacin resistant mutants
AcrAB-TolC is a major efflux pump in Escherichia coli. It was reported that tolC is overexpressed and involves in improving the organic solvent tolerance level in Escherichia coli marR mutants that are resistant to several antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin. Low and intermediate levels resistance did not improve organic solvent tolerance. Thus, in this descriptive-experimental study it was deci...
Many transporters of Gram-negative bacteria involved in the extracellular secretion of proteins and the efflux of toxic molecules operate by forming intermembrane complexes. These complexes are proposed to span both inner and outer membranes and create a bridge across the periplasm. In this study, we analyzed interactions between the inner and outer membrane components of the tri-partite multid...
Bacterial efflux pumps confer multidrug resistance by transporting diverse antibiotics from the cell. In Gram-negative bacteria, some of these pumps form multi-protein assemblies that span the cell envelope. Here, we report the near-atomic resolution cryoEM structures of the Escherichia coli AcrAB-TolC multidrug efflux pump in resting and drug transport states, revealing a quaternary structural...
OBJECTIVES Multidrug efflux pumps mediate resistance to antibiotics and other toxic compounds. We studied the role of AcrAB-TolC, the main efflux pump in Escherichia coli, in regulating gene expression. METHODS Deletion mutants, an acrABp-lacZ fusion and reverse transcription-real-time quantitative PCR experiments were used to study the role of AcrAB-TolC and metabolism in regulating gene exp...
