ACI-1 class A beta-lactamase is widespread across human gut microbiomes due to transposons harboured by tailed prophages

2017-12-18

Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic resistance is increasing among pathogens at unprecedented rates and the human body contains a large pool of antibiotic resistance genes that can be spread among bacteria by mobile genetic elements. Acidaminococcus intestini , a bacterium found in the human gut that belongs to the class of Negativicutes, is the first gram-negative coccus shown to be resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics. Resistance is co...
