Noise reduction strategies in metagenomic chromosome confirmation capture to link antibiotic resistance genes to microbial hosts
2022-11-05
Abstract excerpt
The gut microbiota is a reservoir for antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). With current sequencing methods, it is difficult to assign ARGs to their microbial hosts, particularly if these ARGs are located on plasmids. Metagenomic chromosome conformation capture approaches (meta3C and Hi-C), have recently been developed to link bacterial genes to phylogenetic markers, thus potentially allowing the assignment of AR...
