Major Drawback

ABSTRACT A major drawback of most studies on how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics is that they concentrate mainly on bacteria that can be cultivated in the laboratory. In the present study, we cloned part of the oral metagenome and isolated a novel tetracycline resistance gene, tet(37), which inactivates tetracycline.

ABSTRACT Members of our group recently identified a new tetracycline resistance gene, tet(W), in three genera of rumen obligate anaerobes. Here, we show that tet(W) is also present in bacteria isolated from human feces. The tet(W) genes found in human Fusobacterium prausnitzii andBifidobacterium longum isolates were more than 99.9% identical to those from a rumen isolate of Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens.
