Efflux mechanisms: practical implications Do efflux systems produce clinically relevant levels of resistance ? Does the expression of drug transporters impair the virulence of bacterial pathogens ? What is the prevalence of efflux systems relative to other resistance mechanisms among the clinical isolates ? How to recognize efflux mutants in laboratory practice ? What recommendations can be made to the physician for the treatment of patients infected with mdr strains ? 10
Structure of bacterial efflux systems One component systems – Mostly in Gram positive species (except Tet...) – A single transporter protein in the cytoplasmic membrane – Determines the substrate specificity and resistance Three component (tripartite) systems – Exclusively in Gram negative species (GNB) ♦ A transporter protein ♦ A periplasmic adaptor lipoprotein ♦ A outer membrane channel protein 11
