Detection of tetracycline resistance determinant tetA gene and antimicrobial resistance pattern in Escherichia coli isolates recovered from healthy layer chickens
Aim: The aim was to study the occurrence of tetracycline resistance determinant tetA gene, and antibacterial resistance pattern in commensal Escherichia coli recovered from healthy non-clinical layer chickens. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four cloacal swabs were obtained from 15 flocks in five different layer farms located at around Namakkal, which is a place of high-intensity layer chicken re...
متن کاملInterdomain loop mutation Asp190Cys of the tetracycline efflux transporter TetA(B) decreases affinity for substrate.
TetA(B), the tetracycline efflux protein from Tn10, has 12 predicted α-helices that span the Escherichia coli cytoplasmic membrane (10) and is a member of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (4). TetA(B) and related tetracycline antiporters use the bacterial transmembrane proton motive force to export one metal-tetracycline complex in exchange for one H + (12), thereby reducing the intracellular ...
متن کاملProjection structure of NhaA, a secondary transporter from Escherichia coli, at 4.0 A resolution.
Electron cryomicroscopy of frozen-hydrated two-dimensional crystals of NhaA, a Na+/H+ antiporter from Escherichia coli predicted to have 12 transmembrane alpha-helices, has facilitated the calculation of a projection map of NhaA at 4.0 A resolution. NhaA was homologously expressed in E.coli with a His6 tag, solubilized in dodecyl maltoside and purified in a single step using Ni2+ affinity chrom...
متن کاملTetracycline resistance in Escherichia coli isolates from hospital patients.
Hospital isolates of Escherichia coli resistant to tetracycline (TC) were studied to identify mechanisms which regulate TC resistance levels and ability to transfer TC resistance. Antibiotic resistance patterns, resistance levels to TC, and ability to transfer TC resistance were determined for the isolates. Similar data were obtained for the transferable plasmids after transfer to several new h...
متن کاملStructure of the multidrug transporter EmrD from Escherichia coli.
EmrD is a multidrug transporter from the Major Facilitator Superfamily that expels amphipathic compounds across the inner membrane of Escherichia coli. Here, we report the x-ray structure of EmrD determined to a resolution of 3.5 angstroms. The structure reveals an interior that is composed mostly of hydrophobic residues, which is consistent with its role transporting amphipathic molecules. Two...
