An open reading frame (ORF) homologous to norA was insertionally inactivated with cat in a fluoroquinolone-resistant pneumococcus with an efflux phenotype; this inactivation caused reversion to drug sensitivity. The ORF product has 24% amino acid sequence identity each to NorA and Bmr, which suggests that it is a major facilitator system pump of the 12-transmembrane-segment class.
在一株具有外排表型的耐氟喹诺酮肺炎球菌中,与norA同源的一个开放阅读框(ORF)被cat插入失活;这种失活导致菌株恢复对药物的敏感性。该ORF产物与NorA和Bmr的氨基酸序列一致性均为24%,这表明它是一种12跨膜片段类的主要易化子系统泵。
