Potential multidrug resistance gene POHL: An ecologically relevant indicator in marine sponges
Abstract Sponges are sessile filter feeders found in all aquatic habitats from the tropics to the arctic. Against potential environmental hazards, they are provided with efficient defense systems, e.g., protecting chaperones and/or the P‐170/multidrug resistance pump system. Here we report on a furt...
