Mechanism of coupling drug transport reactions located in two different membranes
Gram- negative bacteria utilize a diverse array of multidrug transporters to pump toxic compounds out of cells. Some transporters together with periplasmic membrane fusion proteins (MFPs) and outer membrane channels assemble trans-envelope complexes that expel multiple antibiotics across outer membr...
