Multidrug resistance (MDR) refers to the capability of bacterial pathogens to withstand lethal
doses of structurally diverse drugs which are capable of eradicating non-resistant strains …

The most common prokaryotic signal transduction mechanisms are the one-component
systems in which a single polypeptide contains both a sensory domain and a DNA-binding …

We have developed a general profile for the proteins of the TetR family of repressors. The
stretch that best defines the profile of this family is made up of 47 amino acid residues that …

Multiresistance in Gram-negative pathogens, particularly Pseudomonas aeruginosa,
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Acinetobacter spp. and the Enterobacteriaceae, is a …

Aromatic compounds are ubiquitous in nature; they are the building blocks of abundant
lignin, and constitute a substantial proportion of synthetic chemicals and organic pollutants …

Members of the IclR family of regulators are proteins with around 250 residues. The IclR
family is best defined by a profile covering the effector binding domain. This is supported by …

When Pseudomonas putida KT2440 cells encounter toluene in the growth medium, they
perceive it simultaneously as a potential nutrient to be metabolized, as a membrane …

ABSTRACT Pseudomonas putida DOT-T1E is tolerant to toluene and other toxic
hydrocarbons through extrusion of the toxic compounds from the cell by means of three …

Pseudomonas putida is well known for its metabolic capabilities, but recently, it has been
shown to exhibit resistance to a wide range of antibiotics. In P. putida DOT-T1E, the TtgABC …

The microorganism resistance to antibiotics has become one of the most worrying issues for
science due to the difficulties related to clinical treatment and the rapid spread of diseases …
