Comparison of <i>tet</i> (X4)-containing contigs from metagenomic sequencing data with plasmid sequences of isolates from a cohort of healthy subjects
2023-11-10
Abstract excerpt
The recently discovered tigecycline-inactivating enzyme Tet(X4) can confer high-level tigecycline resistance on its hosts, which makes it a public health concern. This study focused on detection, analysis, and characterization of Tet(X4)-positive Enterobacteriaceae from the gut microbiota of a healthy cohort of individuals in Singapore using cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent approaches. Twelve Tet(...
