qacC/qacD/smr | BacMet ID: BAC0321Code for: Efflux
Family: Small multidrug resistance (SMR) familySequence: FASTA
Cross-database information: Link
Organism: Staphylococcus aureusLocation: Plasmid pTZ20, pWBG32, pTZ22, pKH8
Compound: Benzylkonium Chloride (BAC) [class: Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QACs)], Ethidium Bromide [class: Phenanthridine], Pyronin Y [class: Xanthene], Rhodamine 6G [class: Xanthene], Crystal Violet [class: Triarylmethane], Cetrimide (CTM) [class: Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QACs)], Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC) [class: Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QACs)], Dequalinium [class: Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QACs)]Description: Quaternary ammonium compound-resistance protein QacC (also called as QacD or smr); Multidrug exporter. Is implicated for the resistance to bacteriocidal quaternary ammonium compounds and ethidium bromide. It confers resistance to toxic organic cations via proton-dependent export.
Length (amino acid): 107
