Structure and inhibition mechanisms of Mycobacterium tuberculosis essential transporter efflux protein A
Abstract A broad chemical genetic screen in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) identified compounds (BRD-8000.3 and BRD-9327) that inhibit the essential efflux pump EfpA. To understand the mechanisms of inhibition, we determined the structures of EfpA with these inhibitors bound at 2.7-3.4 Å resolutio...
