MtrF has been identified as a cell envelope protein that is involved with the resistance of hydrophobic antimicrobials in Neisseria Gonorrhoeae. MtrF is a protein that helps highlight the expression of detergent resistance by gonococci. MtrF is thought to act in accordance with the MtrC- MtrD- MtrE efflux pump; to make sure gonococci has high level resistance to specific hydrophobic agents. MtrF is located near the MtrR gene and is predicted to encode a cytoplasmic membrane protein that contains up to twelve transmembrane domains. The expression of MtrF is ultimately subject to MtrR’s transcriptional control. MtrF was given its name because it’s so closely tied to the protein MtrR. Several orthologues were discovered in a few Gram-negative and positive bacteria, indicating that perhaps the predicted products may represent an undescribed protein family that is highly involved with resistance of antimicrobials.(3) | MtrF has been identified as a cell envelope protein that is involved with the resistance of hydrophobic antimicrobials in Neisseria Gonorrhoeae.
