Molecular Rationale behind the Differential Substrate Specificity of Bacterial RND Multi-Drug Transporters
Abstract Resistance-Nodulation-cell Division (RND) transporters AcrB and AcrD of Escherichia coli expel a wide range of substrates out of the cell in conjunction with AcrA and TolC, contributing to the onset of bacterial multidrug resistance. Despite sharing an overall sequence identity of ~66% (sim...
