Abstract excerpt
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are now viewed as emerging contaminants posing a potential worldwide human health risk. The degree to which ARGs are transferred to other bacteria via mobile genetic elements (MGEs), including insertion sequences (ISs), plasmids, and phages, has a strong association with their likelihood to function as resistance transfer determinants. Consequently, understanding the structure...
