Research Abstract |
Multidrug efflux pumps plays an important role in the multidrug-resistant mechanism of gram-negative bacteria. In this study, I examined the role of multidrug efflux pumps with Acinetobacter baumannii, especially RND family multidrug efflux pumps. In the A. baumannii ATCC19798, eight gene clusters presumed to be RND type multidrug efflux pumps were found. It has been understood that the gene cluster including A1S 2304 presumed to be coding membrane fusion protein, A1S 2305 presumed to be coding RND type multidrug efflux protein and A1S 2306 presumed to be coding outer membrane protein takes part in the acriflavine resistance.
