MdtABC-TolC

Download Sequences
Accession ARO:3000787
CARD Short NameMdtABC-TolC
DefinitionMdtABC-TolC is a multidrug efflux system in Gram-negative bacteria, including E. coli and Salmonella. MdtA is a membrane fusion protein; TolC is the outer membrane channel; MdtBC form a drug transporter. In the absence of MdtB, the MdtAC-TolC has narrower drug specificity, leading to the loss of novobiocin resistance, for example.

Resistomes

Prevalence of MdtABC-TolC among the sequenced genomes, plasmids, and whole-genome shotgun assemblies available at NCBI or IslandViewer for 414 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).
