AdeIJK, a Resistance-Nodulation-Cell Division Pump Effluxing Multiple Antibiotics in <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>
18 Dec 2007
Abstract excerpt
We have identified a second resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND)-type efflux pump, AdeIJK, in clinical isolate Acinetobacter baumannii BM4454. The adeI, adeJ, and adeK genes encode, respectively, the membrane fusion, RND, and outer membrane components of the pump. AdeJ belongs to the AcrB protein family (57% identity with AcrB from Escherichia coli). mRNA analysis by Northern blotting and reverse...
