A framework for identifying the recent origins of mobile antibiotic resistance genes
Ebmeyer and colleagues developed a genomic framework for identification and scrutiny of the origins of antibiotic resistance genes. Using data scoured from the literature and publicly available genomes, their results indicate that only 81% of previously reported origins are valid, and that the major...

| Sumario: | Ebmeyer and colleagues developed a genomic framework for identification and scrutiny of the origins of antibiotic resistance genes. Using data scoured from the literature and publicly available genomes, their results indicate that only 81% of previously reported origins are valid, and that the majority of resistance genes of which the origin is known to date emerged in taxa that have been associated with infection in humans and domesticated animals. |
