Function
[ACRZ_ECO57] AcrA-AcrB-AcrZ-TolC is a drug efflux protein complex with a broad substrate specificity. This protein binds to AcrB and is required for efflux of some but not all substrates, suggesting it may influence the specificity of drug export.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01484] [TOLC_ECOLI] Outer membrane channel, which is required for the function of several efflux systems such as AcrAB-TolC, AcrEF-TolC, EmrAB-TolC and MacAB-TolC. These systems are involved in export of antibiotics and other toxic compounds from the cell. TolC is also involved in import of colicin E1 into the cells.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [ACRB_ECOLI] AcrAB is a drug efflux protein with a broad substrate specificity.[6] [7] [8] [ACRA_ECO57] AcrA-AcrB-AcrZ-TolC is a drug efflux protein complex with broad substrate specificity that uses the proton motive force to export substrates. This subunit may act as an adapter protein that links AcrB and TolC stably together (By similarity).
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Bacterial efflux pumps confer multidrug resistance by transporting diverse antibiotics from the cell. In Gram-negative bacteria, some of these pumps form multi-protein assemblies that span the cell envelope. Here we report the near-atomic resolution cryoEM structures of the Escherichia coli AcrAB-TolC multidrug efflux pump in resting and drug transport states, revealing a quaternary structural switch that allosterically couples and synchronizes initial ligand binding with channel opening. Within the transport-activated state, the channel remains open even though the pump cycles through three distinct conformations. Collectively, our data provide a dynamic mechanism for the assembly and operation of the AcrAB-TolC pump.
