ornithine uptake porin CarO The outer membrane porin CarO (carbapenem resistance-associated outer membrane protein), found in Acinetobacter, is of clinical interest because of its role in allowing entry of carbapenem antibiotics and its variability from strain to strain. CarO should not be confused with Omp33-36, an essentially unrelated outer membrane protein that is similar in size and that also affects carbapenem susceptibility.
