CARD 2020: antibiotic resistome surveillance with the comprehensive antibiotic resistance database

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res., 2019
The Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database (CARD; https://card.mcmaster.ca) is a curated resource providing reference DNA and protein sequences, detection models and bioinformatics tools on the molecular basis of bacterial antimicrobial resistance (

The intrinsic resistome of bacterial pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Intrinsically resistant bacteria have emerged as a relevant health problem in the last years. Those bacterial species, several of them with an environmental origin, present naturally low-level susceptibility to several drugs. It has been proposed that intrinsic resistance is mainly the consequence of the impermeability of cellular envelopes, the ...

Ancient Resistome

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2016
ABSTRACT Antibiotic resistance is an ancient biological mechanism in bacteria, although its proliferation in our contemporary world has been amplified through antimicrobial therapy. Recent studies conducted on ancient environmental and human samples have uncovered numerous antibiotic-resistant bacteria and resistance genes.

A novel sulfonamide resistance mechanism by two-component flavin-dependent monooxygenase system in sulfonamide-degrading actinobacteria

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2019
Sulfonamide-degrading bacteria have been discovered in various environments, suggesting the presence of novel resistance mechanisms via drug inactivation. In this study, Microbacterium sp.

Unique Features of Aeromonas Plasmid pAC3 and Expression of the Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance Genes

open access: yesmSphere, 2017
A highly fluoroquinolone-resistant isolate of Aeromonas species was isolated from a wastewater treatment plant and found to possess multiple resistance mechanisms, including mutations in gyrA and parC, efflux pumps, and plasmid-mediated quinolone ...

The Transferable Resistome of Produce

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Produce is one of the most popular food commodities. Unfortunately, leafy greens can be a reservoir of transferable antibiotic resistance genes. We found that IncF and IncI plasmids were the most prevalent plasmid types in E. coli isolates from produce. This study highlights the importance of

Antibiotic Resistomes in Plant Microbiomes [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Plant Science, 2019
Microorganisms associated with plants may alter the traits of the human microbiome important for human health, but this alteration has largely been overlooked. The plant microbiome is an interface between plants and the environment, and provides many ecosystem functions such as improving nutrient uptake and protecting against biotic and abiotic stress.

A review of the resistome within the digestive tract of livestock

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2021
Antimicrobials have been widely used to prevent and treat infectious diseases and promote growth in food-production animals. However, the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance poses a huge threat to public and animal health, especially in less developed
