In the present study, we showed that yojI, an Escherichia coli open reading frame with an unknown function, mediates resistance to the peptide antibiotic microcin J25 when it is expressed from a multicopy vector. Disruption of the single chromosomal copy of yojI increased sensitivity of cells to microcin J25. The YojI protein was previously assumed to be an ATP-binding-cassette-type exporter on the basis of sequence similarities. We demonstrate that YojI is capable of pumping out microcin molecules. Thus, one obvious explanation for the protective effect against microcin J25 is that YojI action keeps the intracellular concentration of the peptide below a toxic level. The outer membrane protein TolC in addition to YojI is required for export of microcin J25 out of the cell. Microcin J25 is thus the first known substrate for YojI.
