Overexpression of effluxpumps is an important mechanism by which bacteria evade effects of substrate antimicrobial agents and inhibition of such pumps is a promising strategy to circumvent this resistance mechanism. NorA is a Staphylococcusaureusmultidrugeffluxpump, the activity of which confers decreased susceptibility to many structurally unrelated agents, including fluoroquinolones, resulting
