Comparative analysis of sequences flanking tet(W) resistance genes in multiple species of gut bacteria.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Aug 2006

Kazimierczak Katarzyna A, Flint Harry J, Scott Karen P

Abstract excerpt

tet(W) is one of the most abundant tetracycline resistance genes found in bacteria from the mammalian gut and was first identified in the rumen anaerobe Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens 1.230, where it is highly mobile and its transfer is associated with the transposable chromosomal element TnB1230. In order to compare the genetic basis for tet(W) carriage in different bacteria, we studied sequences flanking tet(W) in...
