Active Export Proteins Mediating Drug Resistance in Staphylococci
1 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
Drug resistance mediated by integral membrane transporters is an important mode of cellular resistance to cytotoxic agents across all classes of living organisms. Gram-positive bacteria, such as staphylococcal species, are not encapsulated by a selective outer membrane permeability barrier. Therefore, these organisms often employ integral membrane drug transport systems to maintain cellular concentrations of...
