Ricos BiologyAntibiotic resistance has become one of the most pressing worldwide fitness issues, jeopardizing the effectiveness of contemporary medication. Resistance genes, commonly observed in cellular genetic factors such as plasmids, transposons, and integrons, are imperative to the spread of resistance across bacterial populations.

Horizontal Gene Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Biofilms
Antibiotics, 2023 Most bacteria attach to biotic or abiotic surfaces and are embedded in a complex matrix which is known as biofilm. Biofilm formation is especially worrisome in clinical settings as it hinders the treatment of infections with antibiotics due to the ...

Assessment of global health risk of antibiotic resistance genes
Nature Communications, 2022 Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have accelerated microbial threats to human health in the last decade. Many genes can confer resistance, but evaluating the relative health risks of ARGs is complex. Factors such as the abundance, propensity for lateral

An omics-based framework for assessing the health risk of antimicrobial resistance genes
Nature Communications, 2021 Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are widespread among bacteria. However, not all ARGs pose serious threats to public health, highlighting the importance of identifying those that are high-risk.

Global biogeography and projection of soil antibiotic resistance genes
Science Advances, 2022 Although edaphic antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) pose serious threats to human well-being, their spatially explicit patterns and responses to environmental constraints at the global scale are not well understood.

Phage-Plasmids Spread Antibiotic Resistance Genes through Infection and Lysogenic Conversion
bioRxiv, 2022 The dissemination of antimicrobial resistance is a major threat to global health. Here, we show that a group of temperate bacterial viruses (phages), termed phage-plasmids, commonly encode different and multiple types of resistance genes of high clinical

Mètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review, 2023 The increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in both humans and livestock is attributed largely to the overuse and misuse of antimicrobials. The alarming emergence of this resistance in human and veterinary medicine has activated awareness

The Spread of Antibiotic Resistance Genes In Vivo Model
The Canadian journal of infectious diseases & medical microbiology = Journal canadien des maladies infectieuses et de la microbiologie medicale, 2022 Infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a major public health threat. The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment or clinical setting pose a serious threat to human and animal health worldwide ...
