“…Subsequently, molecular docking was done using SwissDock (http://www.swissdock.ch/) to validate binding interactions of both the transporters with ethidium bromide and norfloxacin as both the transporters showed certain degree of transport for these substrates. Classically, a MATE pump has 12 TMs arranged in two bundles of six TMs each (Tanaka et al, 2013, Tanaka et al, 2017, Radchenko et al, 2016, Lu et al, 2013b. The first TM has an ion binding site represented by D32, the Aspartic Acid residue at 32 position (Otsuka et al, 2005, Long et al, 2008, Lu et al, 2013a, Lu et al, 2013b.…”
