Identification of a new ribosomal protection type of tetracycline resistance gene, tet(36), from swine manure pits.

PMID 12839793 · 2003

The study identifies a new tetracycline resistance gene, tet(36), from Bacteroides sp. strain 139 isolated from swine manure pits. This gene encodes a ribosomal protection type of tetracycline resistance protein and was shown to confer tetracycline resistance in E. coli and other Bacteroides strains.
