Strand-biased circularizing integrative elements spread <i>tmexCD-toprJ</i> gene clusters encoding RND-type multidrug efflux pumps by repeated transpositions
2022-09-22
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) are associated with mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that conscript useful genes into the human–microbe and microbe–microbe battlefields. Thus, under intense selective pressure, ARGs have been constantly adapting and evolving, spreading among microbes. tmexCD-toprJ gene clusters, which encode resistance–nodulation–cell division (RND)-type efflux pumps, confer multidrug-resistan...
