The resistome of the bovine gastrointestinal tract

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2022
The gastrointestinal tracts of beef and dairy cattle are reservoirs of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, and our knowledge of the ecology of resistance in these animals has changed with the advent of novel molecular technologies. Application of metagenomics and qPCR to the study of bovine gut ecology has demonstrated that there is overlap, with some ...

The Enzymes of the Rifamycin Antibiotic Resistome

Accounts of Chemical Research, 2021
Rifamycin antibiotics include the WHO essential medicines rifampin, rifabutin, and rifapentine. These are semisynthetic derivatives of the natural product rifamycins, originally isolated from the soil bacterium Amycolatopsis rifamycinica. These antibiotics are primarily used to treat mycobacterial infections, including tuberculosis.

The tetracycline resistome

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2009
Resistance to tetracycline emerged soon after its discovery six decades ago. Extensive clinical and non-clinical uses of this class of antibiotic over the years have combined to select for a large number of resistant determinants, collectively termed the tetracycline resistome.

Sampling the Antibiotic Resistome

Science, 2006
Microbial resistance to antibiotics currently spans all known classes of natural and synthetic compounds. It has not only hindered our treatment of infections but also dramatically reshaped drug discovery, yet its origins have not been systematically studied.

The Versatile Mutational Resistome of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
One of the most striking features of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is its outstanding capacity for developing antimicrobial resistance to nearly all available antipseudomonal agents through the selection of chromosomal mutations, leading to the failure of the treatment of severe hospital-acquired or chronic infections.

The antibiotic resistome

Expert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2010
Antibiotics are essential for the treatment of bacterial infections and are among our most important drugs. Resistance has emerged to all classes of antibiotics in clinical use. Antibiotic resistance has, proven inevitable and very often it emerges rapidly after the introduction of a drug into the clinic.

Antimicrobial resistomes in food chain microbiomes

Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2023
The safety and integrity of the global food system is in a constant state of flux with persistent chemical and microbial risks. While chemical risks are being managed systematically, microbial risks pose extra challenges. Antimicrobial resistant microorganism and persistence of related antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the food chain adds an extra ...

Forces shaping the antibiotic resistome

BioEssays, 2014
Antibiotic resistance has become a problem of global scale. Resistance arises through mutation or through the acquisition of resistance gene(s) from other bacteria in a process called horizontal gene transfer (HGT). While HGT is recognized as an important factor in the dissemination of resistance genes in clinical pathogens, its role in the environment

Hypervariation and phase variation in the bacteriophage ‘resistome’

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2007
Most bacteria encode proteins for defence against infection by bacteriophages. The mechanisms that bring about phage defence are extremely diverse, suggesting frequent independent evolution of novel processes. Phage defence determinants are often plasmid or phage-encoded and many that are chromosomal show evidence of lateral transfer. Recent studies on
