Plasmid Metagenome Reveals High Levels of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Mobile Genetic Elements in Activated Sludge
The overuse or misuse of antibiotics has accelerated antibiotic resistance, creating a major challenge for the public health in the world. Sewage treatment plants (STPs) are considered as important reservoirs for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and activated sludge characterized with high microbial density and diversity facilitates ARG horizontal gene transfer (HGT) via mobile genetic elemen...
متن کاملMetagenomic Profiling of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Mobile Genetic Elements in a Tannery Wastewater Treatment Plant
Antibiotics are often used to prevent sickness and improve production in animal agriculture, and the residues in animal bodies may enter tannery wastewater during leather production. This study aimed to use Illumina high-throughput sequencing to investigate the occurrence, diversity and abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in aerobic and anaerobic s...
متن کاملShotgun metagenomics reveals a wide array of antibiotic resistance genes and mobile elements in a polluted lake in India
There is increasing evidence for an environmental origin of many antibiotic resistance genes. Consequently, it is important to identify environments of particular risk for selecting and maintaining such resistance factors. In this study, we described the diversity of antibiotic resistance genes in an Indian lake subjected to industrial pollution with fluoroquinolone antibiotics. We also assesse...
متن کاملNon pathogenic Vibrio environmental strains as a marine reservoir of virulence, fitness and antibiotic resistance genes and mobile genetic elements
Introduction Pathogenic Vibrio species are of major concern as they are responsible for infectious diseases in humans. However, other Vibrio species found in the aquatic environment and defined as non pathogenic for humans, such as Vibrio alginolyticus, Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio anguillarum, Vibrio fluvialis and others are also of interest in that, although rarely, they have been isolated in assoc...
متن کاملMobile Antibiotic Resistance Encoding Elements Promote Their Own Diversity
Integrating conjugative elements (ICEs) are a class of bacterial mobile genetic elements that disseminate via conjugation and then integrate into the host cell genome. The SXT/R391 family of ICEs consists of more than 30 different elements that all share the same integration site in the host chromosome but often encode distinct properties. These elements contribute to the spread of antibiotic r...
