2.A.7.1.9
The spermidine exporter, MdtIJ (MdtIJ = YdgEF) (Higashi et al., 2008).  Catalyzes the export of spermidine and putrescine, and confers resistance to deoxycholate and SDS (Nishino and Yamaguchi 2001). It can be induced by these polyamines and bile salts. Details of the induction mechanism are known (Leuzzi et al. 2015).
