Antibiotic Resistance Antibiotic resistance is an alarming and growing challenge. Bacteria show great heterogeneity in growth and mutation rates. Such variability allows some cells to persist during transient antibiotic exposure. During this persistent phase, mutations accumulate, which can result in selection for full-blown antibiotic resistance.

Efflux pump inhibitors in bacteria
Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 2007The efficacy of antibiotherapy of infectious diseases is strongly compromised by the advent and spread of antibiotic resistance. Active efflux of cytotoxic drugs mediated by multi-drug transporters is the basis of multi-drug resistance in prokaryotic cells.

Plant pathogens belonging to the genus Erwinia cause diseases in several economically important plants. Plants respond to bacterial infection with a powerful chemical arsenal and signaling molecules to rid themselves of the microbes. Although our understanding of how Erwinia initiate infections in plants has become clear, a comprehensive understanding ...

Multidrug-resistant bacteria are a major public health threat. MDR efflux pump overexpression and enzymatic changes are major antibiotic resistance mechanisms. Many drug and biofilm resistance strategies involve efflux pumps. Natural substrate and inhibitor identification is a new study. Efflux pump inhibition allows medication buildup inside bacterial

Antimicrobial Drug Efflux Pump Inhibitors
2016Bacterial multidrug resistance is on the rise, and bacterial efflux pumps make a major contributor to this development. Efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) may be a solution to this problem, since they can reverse resistance to clinically administered antimicrobial agents. Multiple EPIs with activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria have been

Efflux Pumps in Drug Resistance of Candida
Infectious Disorders - Drug Targets, 2006The incidences of human pathogenic yeast Candida albicans and its related species acquiring resistance to antifungals have increased considerably, which poses serious problems towards its successful chemotherapy. The resistance of these pathogenic fungi is not restricted to the commonly used triazole compounds but is even encountered, though not often,

Small Multidrug Resistance Efflux Pumps
2016Small multidrug resistance (SMR) transporters confer resistance to a variety of quaternary cation compound antimicrobials. These secondary active transporters are the smallest known transporters and have been demonstrated to function within the membrane.

Efflux pump activity in Enchytraeidae
2019Enchytraeids are ecologically relevant soil organisms, which play an important role in organic matter decomposition and soil bioturbation. They live in close contact with the pore water fraction of soil which makes them vulnerable to xenobiotics exposure.

Bacterial efflux pump inhibition.
Current opinion in investigational drugs (London, England : 2000), 2005Drug efflux is recognized as a clinically relevant mechanism of antimicrobial drug resistance in selected species of bacteria. Membrane-based polypeptides belong to distinct protein superfamilies, the members of which are related by structural characteristics, mechanism of action and energy source for the transport process.
