The diversity of uncharacterized antibiotic resistance genes can be predicted from known gene variants-but not always.

Microbiome - 7 Jul 2018

Bengtsson-Palme Johan

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Antibiotic resistance is considered one of the most urgent threats to modern healthcare, and the role of the environment in resistance development is increasingly recognized. It is often assumed that the abundance and diversity of known resistance genes are representative also for the non-characterized fraction of the resistome in a given environment, but this assumption has not been verified. In this...
