Overexpression of evgA, a response regulator of a two-component system, increased multidrug efflux in Escherichia coli. Since overexpression of the emrKY operon, which is controlled by evgAS, could account only for deoxycholate resistance, the evgAS locus apparently controls expression of at least one other multidrug efflux operon.
