The gene specifying the ethidium efflux system of Escherichia coli has been cloned on a 3.2 kbp HindIII fragment and located on a 1.2 kbp fragment within this. Cross-resistance studies indicate that the system has a broad specificity for monovalent cations and the gene shows no hybridisation with similar genes found in Staphylococci.
编码大肠杆菌溴化乙锭外排系统的基因已被克隆到一个3.2千碱基对的HindIII片段上,并定位在其中一个1.2千碱基对的片段上。交叉耐药性研究表明,该系统对单价阳离子具有广泛的特异性,并且该基因与葡萄球菌中发现的类似基因没有杂交现象。
