ehpR

Gene
ehpR
Protein
Phenazine antibiotic resistance protein EhpR
Organism
Enterobacter agglomerans
Length
129 amino acids
Function
Required for resistance to the phenazine antibiotic D-alanylgriseoluteic acid (AGA), an antibiotic produced by E.agglomerans itself, and thus protects the bacterium against phenazine toxicity. Probably binds AGA and acts as a chaperone that works in tandem with a membrane transporter for subsequent antibiotic secretion.
