Efflux pump antibiotic binding site mutations are associated with azithromycin nonsusceptibility in clinical <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i> isolates
2020-06-04
Abstract excerpt
Lyu and Moseng et al. used cryo-electron microscopy to characterize key residues involved in drug binding by mosaic-like MtrD efflux pump alleles in Neisseria gonorrhoeae (1). Isogenic experiments introducing key MtrD substitutions R714G and K823E increased macrolide MICs, leading the authors to predict that non-mosaic MtrD “gonococcal strains bearing both the mtrR promoter and amino acid changes at MtrD positio...
