The SmeDEF pump of is negatively regulated by SmeT. In this study, strains KJΔT ( deletion mutant) and KJT-D (mutant with a defective SmeT-binding site) showed increased resistance to chloramphenicol/nalidixic acid/macrolides and susceptibility to aminoglycoside. Overexpression of the SmeDEF pump, in either KJΔT or KJT-D, downregulated expression, which is responsible for the reduced aminoglycoside resistance. Furthermore, the SmeRySy two-component regulatory system was downregulated in response to SmeDEF overexpression, which supports its involvement in the regulatory circuit.
的SmeDEF泵受到SmeT的负调控。在本研究中,菌株KJΔT(缺失突变体)和KJT-D(具有缺陷的SmeT结合位点的突变体)对氯霉素/萘啶酸/大环内酯类药物的抗性增加,而对氨基糖苷类药物敏感。在KJΔT或KJT-D中过表达SmeDEF泵会下调负责降低氨基糖苷类抗性的表达。此外,响应于SmeDEF过表达,SmeRySy双组分调节系统被下调,这支持了它参与调节回路。
