Comparative Genomics and Virulence Mechanisms to Identify Genes Related to Mucin O‐Glycan Degradation and Pathogenicity in a Potentially Multidrug‐Resistant Clostridium tertium Strain

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
The comparative genomic analysis provides information about how C. tertium HGMC01 strain cause disease through mucin glycan degradation, colonization, multidrug resistance, and modulation of immune responses. Moreover, this analysis data suggest that this strain interacts with host cells by degrading mucin in the gut, potentially through recognition or

Persistence of transferable oxazolidinone resistance genes in enterococcal isolates from a swine farm in China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The appearance of transferable oxazolidinone resistance genes poses a major challenge to public health and environmental safety. These genes not only lead pathogenic bacteria to become resistant to linezolid but also reduce sensitivity to florfenicol ...

Identification of Outer Membrane Vesicles as a New Vehicle Mediating Antibiotic Resistance Gene Transfer in Campylobacter

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The emergence and worldwide dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) compromise antibiotic therapy and are a major public health crisis. Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays a major role in the spread of ARGs among bacterial pathogens.

The prevalence of optrA-carrying Enterococci in the vaginal micro-ecology of pregnant women in late pregnancy

Microbiology Spectrum
The colonization of Enterococcus in the female vagina leads to neonatal and pediatric enterococcal septicemia. Linezolid (LZD) is a kind of mainstream drug for treating multidrug-resistant Gram-positive infections.

Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.
The development of resistance to antimicrobials and their historical progression are depicted in this graphic. It draws attention to important biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that contribute to AMR, such as the transmission of genes, the development of biofilms, and the inactivation of antibiotics.

Genomic epidemiology reveals multiple mechanisms of linezolid resistance in clinical enterococci in China

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials
Background Infections caused by linezolid-resistant enterococci (LRE) are clinically difficult to treat and threaten patient health. However, there is a lack of studies on long time-span LRE strains in China.

Spatio‐temporal characteristics of the gastrointestinal resistome in a cow‐to‐calf model and its environmental dissemination in a dairy production system

iMeta, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2025.
This study revealed spatio‐temporal characteristics of gastrointestinal resistome in a cow‐to‐calf model and the pattern of their spread to the environment and offspring in the dairy production system. The gastrointestinal tract of dairy cows is a natural reservoir of resistomes and distinguished by gut sites and regions.
