RESUMO

All of the transmembrane glutamates of Tet(L) are essential for tetracycline (TET) resistance, and E397 has been shown to be essential for all catalytic modes, i.e., TET-Me2+ and Na+ efflux and K+ uptake. Loop residues D74 and G70 are essential for TET flux but not for Na+ or K+ flux. A cysteineless Tet(L) protein exhibits all activities.
