Extensive screening reveals previously undiscovered aminoglycoside resistance genes in human pathogens

Abstract Antibiotic resistance is a growing threat to human health, caused in part by pathogens accumulating antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) through horizontal gene transfer. New ARGs are typically not recognized until they have become widely disseminated, which limits our ability to reduce their...
