Flux-sensing by transporter/kinase pairs – need-based activation of antibiotic resistance.

Abstract:  Resistance against antimicrobial peptides in many Gram-positive bacteria is mediated by detoxification systems that are comprised of a two-component regulatory system and an ATP-binding-cassette (ABC) transporter. The histidine kinases of these systems depend entirely on the transporter for detection of antimicrobial peptides, suggesting...
