zinc resistance transcriptional regulator
Overview
Mucilaginibacter sp. Strain Metal(loid) and Antibiotic Resistance Isolated from Estuarine Soil Contaminated Mine Tailing from the Fundão Dam.
The study identifies multiple AMR genes in Mucilaginibacter sp. 21p, including genes for resistance to quinolones, aminoglycosides, beta-lactamases, sulfonamides, tetracyclines, daptomycin, arsenic, zinc, manganese, cobalt, and cadmium. These genes are part of efflux pumps and other resistance mechanisms, indicating the strain's adaptability to metal(loid) and antibiotic stressors in contaminated environments.
Antimicrobial resistance is widespread among intestinal and extra-intestinal Bacteroides fragilis strains.
The study reveals that both intestinal and extra-intestinal B. fragilis strains possess comparable resistance gene profiles and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns, suggesting that intestinal strains serve as a reservoir of clinically relevant resistance determinants.
