Discovery of the fourth mobile sulfonamide resistance gene
Microbiome, 2017 Background Over the past 75 years, human pathogens have acquired antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), often from environmental bacteria. Integrons play a major role in the acquisition of antibiotic resistance genes.

Resistance Genes Identified [PDF]
Cancer Discovery, 2017 Abstract A CRISPR-based screen of all 19,050 genes in the genome has revealed around 100 genes that cancer cells must express in order for T cells—and, thus, immunotherapies—to effectively recognize and kill tumors.
