Development of a set of bacterial engineered glycoconjugates as novel serogroup-specific antigens for the serodiagnosis of Escherichia coli O26, O111, O103 and O45 infections associated to hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]
Hemolytic uremic syndrome associated to Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli infection (STEC-HUS) is a life-threatening condition characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney failure. Among STEC, E.

Expression of the Fluoroquinolones Efflux Pump Genes acrA and mdfA in Urinary Escherichia coli Isolates [PDF]
Escherichia coli is one of the most frequent causes of urinary tract infections. Efflux system overexpression is reported to contribute to E. coli resistance to several antibiotics. Our aim in this study was to investigate the relation between antibiotic

Detection of AcrA and AcrB Efflux Pumps in Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumonia that Isolated from Wounds Infection Patients in Al-Diwaniyah Province [PDF]
Many infections produced by multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae are the main cause of death and treatment restrictions worldwide. In K. pneumoniae, the efflux pump system is dangerous in drug resistance.

Efflux Pump-Binding 4(3-Aminocyclobutyl)Pyrimidin-2-Amines Are Colloidal Aggregators
Efflux pumps are a relevant factor in antimicrobial resistance. In E. coli, the tripartite efflux pump AcrAB-TolC removes a chemically diverse set of antibiotics from the bacterium.

Conformational restriction shapes the inhibition of a multidrug efflux adaptor protein
Membrane efflux pumps play a major role in bacterial multidrug resistance. The tripartite multidrug efflux pump system from Escherichia coli, AcrAB-TolC, is a target for inhibition to lessen resistance development and restore antibiotic efficacy, with ...

Membrane fusion proteins of type I secretion system and tripartite efflux pumps share a binding motif for TolC in gram-negative bacteria. [PDF]
The Hly translocator complex of Escherichia coli catalyzes type I secretion of the toxin hemolysin A (HlyA). In this complex, HlyB is an inner membrane ABC (ATP Binding Cassette)-type transporter, TolC is an outer membrane channel protein, and HlyD is a ...
