Rhodamine and tetraphenylphosphonium, the substrates of the Bacillus subtilis multidrug efflux transporter Bmr, induce the expression of Bmr through direct interaction with its transcriptional activator BmrR. Here we show that the C-terminal domain of BmrR, expressed individually, binds both these compounds and therefore can be used as a model for molecular analysis of the phenomenon of multidrug recognition.
若丹明和四苯基鏻是枯草芽孢杆菌多药外排转运蛋白Bmr的底物,它们通过与转录激活因子BmrR直接相互作用来诱导Bmr的表达。我们在此表明,单独表达的BmrR的C末端结构域能结合这两种化合物,因此可作为多药识别现象分子分析的模型。
