Characterization of the Mycobacterial MSMEG-3762/63 Efflux Pump in Mycobacterium smegmatis Drug Efflux

Multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) represents a major health problem worldwide. Drug efflux and the activity of efflux transporters likely play important roles in the development of drug-tolerant and drug-resistant mycobacterial phenotypes. This study is focused on the action of a mycobacter...
