| CARD Short Name | MexGHI-OpmD |
| Definition | MexGHI-OpmD is an efflux complex expressed in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. MexG is a membrane protein required for drug export; MexH is the membrane fusion protein; MexI is the inner membrane transporter; and MexJ is the outer membrane channel protein. MexGHI-OpmD confers resistance to vanadium, norfloxacin, and acriflavin. |

Prevalence of MexGHI-OpmD among the sequenced genomes, plasmids, and whole-genome shotgun assemblies available at NCBI or IslandViewer for 413 important pathogens (see methodological details and complete list of analyzed pathogens). Values reflect percentage of genomes, plasmids, genome islands, or whole-genome shotgun assemblies that have at least one hit to the AMR detection model. Default view includes percentages calculated based on Perfect plus Strict RGI hits. Select the checkbox to view percentages based on only Perfect matches to AMR reference sequences curated in CARD (note: this excludes resistance via mutation as references in protein variant models are often wild-type, sensitive sequences).
