farA
  • BacMet ID: BAC0503
  • Code for: Efflux
  • Family: MFS superfamily
  • Sequence: FASTA
  • Cross-database IDs: Link
  • Organism: Neisseria gonorrhoeae F19
  • Location: Chromosome
  • Compound: Phenylmercury Acetate [class: Organo-mercury], Carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) [class: Hydrazone], Oleic acid [class: Free Fatty Acids], Linoleic acid [class: Free Fatty Acids], Palmitic acid [class: Free Fatty Acids], Triton X-100 [class: Polyethylene glycol]
  • Description: A membrane fusion protein. The farAB operon of Neisseria gonorrhoeae encodes an efflux pump which mediates gonococcal resistance to antibacterial fatty acids. This efflux pump requires the MtrE protein as the outer membrane channel to export antibacterial FAs from inside the cell.
  • Length (amino acid): 394
  • Reference: Lee et al. 1999; Pubmed- 10447892
