MexY-Promoted Aminoglycoside Resistance in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Pseudomonas aeruginosa</named-content>: Involvement of a Putative Proximal Binding Pocket in Aminoglycoside Recognition

ABSTRACT The resistance-nodulation-division (RND) family multidrug efflux system MexXY-OprM is a major determinant of aminoglycoside resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, although the details of aminoglycoside recognition and export by MexY, the substrate-binding RND component of this efflux system,...
