Comprehensive analysis of horizontal gene transfer among multidrug-resistant bacterial pathogens in a single hospital

2019-11-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Multidrug-resistant bacterial pathogens pose a serious public health threat, especially in hospital settings. Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) contributes to this threat by facilitating the rapid spread of genes conferring antibiotic resistance, enhanced virulence, and environmental persistence between nosocomial pathogens. Despite recent advances in microbial gen...
