Modelling multidrug resistance driven by efflux pump expression in Gram-negative bacteria

Efflux pumps are an essential mechanism for bacteria that can account for antibiotic resistance. If an efflux pump can expel an antibiotic so that its concentration within the cell is below a killing threshold the bacteria can become resistant to the antibiotic. Efflux pumps may be specific or they...
