Multidrug efflux pumps: structure, function and regulation [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2018
Infections arising from multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria are spreading rapidly throughout the world and threaten to become untreatable. The origins of resistance are numerous and complex, but one underlying factor is the capacity of bacteria to ...

Inhibition of the multidrug resistance efflux pump

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Reviews on Biomembranes, 1993
An ATP-dependent efflux pump is found in the plasma membrane of certain multidrug resistant (MDR) cancer cells. Drug resistance is due to decreased intracellular drug levels that have been reduced to subcytotoxic concentrations. Inhibition of the MDR efflux pump with a reversal agent may 'trap' the cytotoxic drug inside the cell; thus, cellular drug ...

Multidrug efflux pumps in Staphylococcus aureus and their clinical implications

Journal of Microbiology, 2016
Antibiotic resistance is rapidly spreading among bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, an opportunistic bacterial pathogen that causes a variety of diseases in humans. For the last two decades, bacterial multidrug efflux pumps have drawn attention due to their potential association with clinical multidrug resistance.

Towards understanding promiscuity in multidrug efflux pumps

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2014
Drug export from cells is a major factor in the acquisition of cellular resistance to antimicrobial and cancer chemotherapy, and poses a significant threat to future clinical management of disease. Many of the proteins that catalyse drug efflux do so with remarkably low substrate specificity, a phenomenon known as multidrug transport. For these reasons
