Deterministic Effect of pH on Shaping Soil Resistome Revealed by Metagenomic Analysis.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2023
Soil is recognized as the major reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), harboring the most diverse naturally evolved ARGs on the planet. Multidrug resistance genes are a class of ARGs, and their high prevalence in natural soil ecosystems has ...

Mapping the oral resistome: a systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology
Studying individual ecological niches within the oral cavity is a logical first step to understanding the distribution of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs); however, it is not representative of the whole oral resistome.

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.

Contribution of Plasmidome, Metal Resistome and Integrases to the Persistence of the Antibiotic Resistome in Aquatic Environments

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are among the main hotspots of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment. Previously, we demonstrated that, by increasing anthropogenic pollution, the antibiotic resistome persisted in the microbial community of rivers and lakes, independently by changes in community composition.

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.
