| abstract |
The use of compounds of the milbemycin class as inhibitors of efflux pumps in microbes or other cells is described, along with pharmaceutical compositions incorporating a milbemycin. Also described is a method of screening for compounds which inhibit a CDR1, CDR2, BEN, or FLU1 efflux pump or a pump with components having a high level of protein level sequence similarity with the components of those efflux pumps. |
