Farm dust resistomes and bacterial microbiomes in European poultry and pig farms

Environment International, 2020
Background: Livestock farms are a reservoir of antimicrobial resistant bacteria from feces. Airborne dust-bound bacteria can spread across the barn and to the outdoor environment.

Urban sewage resistomes partially reflect clinical resistomes [PDF]

mSystems
ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major global public health threat, and ongoing surveillance of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) is critical to mitigate current and future risks.

Genomic Insights into the Mobilome and Resistome of Sentinel Microorganisms Originating from Farms of Two Different Swine Production Systems

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a threat to public health due to long-term antimicrobial use (AMU), which promotes the bacterial acquisition of antimicrobial resistance determinants (ARDs).

SNAP2 datasets for the Resistome

, 2020
SNAP2 datasets for the Resistome; these are varient effect predictions for most of the proteome. Files should be placed under inputs/protein_predictions according the instructions provided on the Resistome repo website.

The human gut resistome [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015
In recent decades, the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens has become a major threat to public health. Bacteria can acquire antibiotic resistance genes by the mobilization and transfer of resistance genes from a donor strain.

Human gut resistome can be country-specific [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance have become emerging threats to human health. The human gut is a large reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes. The gut resistome may be influenced by many factors, but the consumption of antibiotics at

In-depth resistome analysis by targeted metagenomics [PDF]

Microbiome, 2017
ABSTRACT We developed ResCap, a targeted sequence capture platform based on SeqCapEZ technology, to analyse resistomes and other genes related to antimicrobial resistance (heavy metals, biocides and plasmids). ResCap includes probes for 8,667 canonical resistance genes (7,963 antibiotic resistance genes and 704 genes conferring ...

Host genetic and environmental factors shape the human gut resistome [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: Understanding and controlling the spread of antimicrobial resistance is one of the greatest challenges of modern medicine. To this end many efforts focus on characterising the human resistome or the set of antibiotic resistance determinants ...

Effects of early-life antibiotics on the developing infant gut microbiome and resistome: a randomized trial

Nature Communications, 2022
Broad-spectrum antibiotics for suspected early-onset neonatal sepsis (sEONS) may have pronounced effects on gut microbiome development and selection of antimicrobial resistance when administered in the first week of life, during the assembly phase of the

PRAP: Pan Resistome analysis pipeline [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2020
Abstract Background Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) can spread among pathogens via horizontal gene transfer, resulting in imparities in their distribution even within the same species. Therefore, a pan-genome approach to analyzing resistomes is necessary for thoroughly characterizing patterns of ARGs distribution within particular pathogen ...
