Contribution of RND superfamily multidrug efflux pumps AdeABC, AdeFGH, and AdeIJK to antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors in multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii AYE

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Acinetobacter baumannii is a critical priority gram-negative bacterial species characterized by multidrug resistance. The latter is significantly attributable to the resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) superfamily of tripartite multidrug efflux systems represented by AdeABC, AdeFGH, and AdeIJK. By constructing isogenic deletion mutants, this investigation assessed the impact of RND efflux pumps on...
