Original sentence: NorM is a prototype of a new transporter family and Brown et al named it MATE (multidrug and toxic compound extrusion) family.NorM seems to function as drug/sodium antiporter which is the first example of Na+-coupled multidrug efflux transpoters in the biological world.The MATE family transporters function as drug/sodium or proton antiporters.The multidrug efflux transporter NorM from Vibrio parahaemolyticus which mediates resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents (norfloxacin, kanamycin, ethidium bromide etc) and its homologue from Escherichia coli were identified in 1998.These proteins mediate resistance to a wide range of cationic dyes, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides and other structurally diverse antimicrobial agents
