adeABC efflux gene in Acinetobacter baumannii

The antimicrobial resistance to Acinetobacter baumannii is significantly high and continues to grow; it has become a global health issue, particularly in regards to carbapenem resistance. The expression of efflux pumps is one of the major mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in A. baumannii by, most...

description The antimicrobial resistance to Acinetobacter baumannii is significantly high and continues to grow; it has become a global health issue, particularly in regards to carbapenem resistance. The expression of efflux pumps is one of the major mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in A. baumannii by, most prevalently, adeABC of the resistance/nodulation/division family. The detection rate of adeB was the highest in clinical isolates compared to others (adeFGH, adeIJk), although it varied among other strains. In this minireview, we explain the adeABC efflux gene in A. baumannii causing antibiotic resistance and compare adeABC with other efflux genes in order to discern the function of adeABC in A. baumannii resistance, which may help in the discovery of new antibacterial agents.
