RETRACTED: Structure of the multidrug resistance efflux transporter EmrE from <i>Escherichia coli</i>

Abstract excerpt

Multidrug resistance efflux transporters threaten to reverse the progress treating infectious disease by extruding a wide range of drug and other cytotoxic compounds. One such drug transporter, EmrE, from the small multidrug resistance family, utilizes proton gradients as an energy source to drive substrate translocation. In an effort to understand the molecular structural basis of this transport mechanism, we...
