Intrinsic role of coagulase negative staphylococci norA-like efflux system in fluoroquinolones resistance

NorA is a Staphylococcus aureus multidrug transporter that exports structurally distinct compounds including fluoroquinolones. In this study norA-like genes of Staphylococcus epidermidis (norA(SEP)) and Staphylococcus haemolyticus (norA(SHAE)) were identified and sequenced. The nucleotide identity o...

description NorA is a Staphylococcus aureus multidrug transporter that exports structurally distinct compounds including fluoroquinolones. In this study norA-like genes of Staphylococcus epidermidis (norA(SEP)) and Staphylococcus haemolyticus (norA(SHAE)) were identified and sequenced. The nucleotide identity of norA(SEP) and norA(SHAE) with norA was 75.3 and 74.1%, respectively, and the amino acid identity 87.7 and 86%, respectively. Inactivation of norA(SEP) increased the ciprofloxacin susceptibility of E. coli DH5α carrying the pB SK 198 norA(SEP) EZ cat norA(SEP) plasmid.
