Deciphering the Structural Diversity and Classification of the Mobile Tigecycline Resistance Gene <italic toggle="yes">tet</italic>(X)-Bearing Plasmidome among Bacteria

ABSTRACT The emergence of novel plasmid-mediated resistance genes constitutes a great public concern. Recently, mobile tet(X) variants were reported in diverse pathogens from different sources. However, the diversity of tet(X)-bearing plasmids remains largely unknown. In this study, the phenotypes a...
