What is a resistance gene? Ranking risk in resistomes - Nature
2014年12月15日 · We propose rules for estimating the risks associated with genes that are present in environmental resistomes by evaluating the likelihood of their introduction into human pathogens, and the...
An overview of the antimicrobial resistance mechanisms of ...
Apparently most pathogenic microorganisms have the capability of developing resistance to at least some antimicrobial agents. The main mechanisms of resistance are: limiting uptake of a drug, modification of a drug target, inactivation of a drug, and active efflux of a drug.
Assessment of global health risk of antibiotic resistance genes
2022年3月23日 · Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have accelerated microbial threats to human health in the last decade. Many genes can confer resistance, but evaluating the relative health risks of ARGs is...
Acquired Antibiotic Resistance Genes: An Overview - PMC
In this review an overview is given on antibiotic resistance (AR) mechanisms with special attentions to the AR genes described so far preceded by a short introduction on the discovery and mode of action of the different classes of antibiotics.
Antibiotic resistance genes in bacteria: Occurrence, spread ...
The origin and molecular basis of bacterial resistance is the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Investigations on ARGs mostly focus on the environments in which antibiotics are frequently used, such as hospitals and farms.
Antibiotic resistome from the One-Health perspective ...
2021年3月1日 · Researchers have long known that naturally occurring antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) can transfer between microbial species, disrupting clinical or veterinary antibiotic use.
