| Abstract: | We cloned a gene, abeM, for a multidrug efflux pump from Acinetobacter baumannii using Escherichia coli as the host. Sequence analysis revealed that AbeM is a member of the MATE family of pumps. AbeM was found to be an H(+)-coupled multidrug efflux pump and a unique member of the MATE family. |
