‘To be, or not to be’—The dilemma of ‘silent’ antimicrobial resistance genes in bacteria
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2022 AbstractAntimicrobial resistance is a serious threat to public health that dramatically undermines our ability to treat bacterial infections. Microorganisms exhibit resistance to different drug classes by acquiring resistance determinants through multiple mechanisms including horizontal gene transfer. The presence of drug resistance genotypes is mostly

Antimicrobial resistance and prevalence of resistance genes in intestinal Bacteroidales strains [PDF]
Clinics, 2011 This study examined the antimicrobial resistance profile and the prevalence of resistance genes in Bacteroides spp. and Parabacteroides distasonis strains isolated from children's intestinal microbiota.The susceptibility of these bacteria to 10 antimicrobials was determined using an agar dilution method.

Antimicrobial and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in the Environment
2020Antibiotic resistance and its widespread implications present predicament to healthcare. Different investigations show that environment plays a significant role in emergence of resistance in bacteria and pathogens. Though a clearer concept of the ancestral phylogenetic and environmental route resulting to clinical emergence of resistance genes is still

British Journal of Ophthalmology
Ocular infections, caused by a variety of microbes, are likely to become more difficult to treat due to the global increase in antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Traditional assays for resistance only analyse a small proportion of the possible resistance capability of microbes. This review discusses the use of genomic datasets for predicting AMR and their

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains have become a great threat to public health. The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in biological characteristics and antimicrobial resistance gene (ARG) mutations of V. parahaemolyticus that displayed different levels of antimicrobial resistance.

Genes and mutations conferring antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella: an update
Microbes and Infection, 2006Resistance to various classes of antimicrobial agents has been encountered in many bacteria of medical and veterinary relevance. Particular attention has been paid to zoonotic bacteria such as Salmonella. Over the years, various studies have reported the presence of genes and mutations conferring resistance to antimicrobial agents in Salmonella ...

Antimicrobial resistance islands: resistance gene clusters in Salmonella chromosome and plasmids
Microbes and Infection, 2006Genes conferring simultaneous resistance to different classes of antimicrobials, confer a selective advantage to the host, particularly when those corresponding antibiotics are administered. Multiple resistance genes clustered within the same genetic locus (resistance island) can be transferred en bloc to other organisms.

Quest for antimicrobial genes to engineer disease-resistant crops
Trends in Plant Science, 2001Antimicrobial peptides are ancient mediators of the innate defenses of all species of life. These small lytic peptides are being exploited to genetically engineer disease-resistant crop plants. It is anticipated that certain (combinations of) potent antimicrobial peptides will provide agronomically relevant levels of disease control and should ...

Antimicrobial resistance and resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus strains from rabbits
Veterinary Microbiology, 2004Fifty-six Staphylococcus aureus isolates recovered between 1998 and 2003 from 31 rabbit farms with and without problems of chronic staphylococcosis, were screened for resistance to enrofloxacin, erythromycin, gentamicin, lincomycin, neomycin, penicillin and tetracyclines using the agar dilution test.
