Mosaic tetracycline resistance genes comprising tet(O), tet(W), and tet(32) sequences were abundant in DNA extracted from pig and human fecal samples, accounting for 78% (50/64) and 46% (37/80) of genes amplified with a tet(O) primer set, respectively, in two samples. The nonmosaic tet(32) gene was isolated from a human saliva bacterium.
包含tet(O)、tet(W)和tet(32)序列的嵌合四环素抗性基因在从猪和人类粪便样本中提取的DNA中大量存在,在两个样本中,分别占用tet(O)引物组扩增的基因的78%(50/64)和46%(37/80)。非嵌合tet(32)基因是从一种人类唾液细菌中分离出来的。
