efflux pump of the MATE family
Overview
Overexpression of the novel MATE fluoroquinolone efflux pump FepA in Listeria monocytogenes is driven by inactivation of its local repressor FepR.
The study identifies FepA, a novel MATE family efflux pump, as a cause of fluoroquinolone resistance in Listeria monocytogenes, which is regulated by the TetR-like repressor FepR.
Does Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes Contribute Significantly to the Burden of Antimicrobial Resistance in Uruguay?
The study identified several antimicrobial resistance genes in Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and Listeria monocytogenes isolates, including aph(3")-Ib, aph(3′)-Ia, aph(6)-Id, blaTEM-1B, sul2, tet(A), fosX, lin, norB, lde, mdrL, and fepA. These genes conferred resistance to various antibiotics such as ampicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline, fosfomycin, lincomycin, ciprofloxacin, and erythromycin.
