The mcb operon (which is responsible for microcin B17 production) and the emr operon (which encodes a multidrug resistance pump) share a common negative regulator, EmrR. Nevertheless, compounds that induce the emr operon repress the mcb operon. The pump dedicated to microcin B17 extrusion can also protect the calls against sparfloxacin and other toxic compounds.
mcb操纵子(负责微菌素B17的产生)和emr操纵子(编码一种多药耐药泵)共享一个共同的负调节因子EmrR。然而,诱导emr操纵子的化合物会抑制mcb操纵子。专门用于微菌素B17外排的泵也可以保护细胞免受司帕沙星和其他有毒化合物的侵害。
