Abstract
ABSTRACT
Members of our group recently identified a new tetracycline resistance gene,
tet
(W), in three genera of rumen obligate anaerobes. Here, we show that
tet
(W) is also present in bacteria isolated from human feces. The
tet
(W) genes found in human
Fusobacterium prausnitzii
and
Bifidobacterium longum
isolates were more than 99.9% identical to those from a rumen isolate of
Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens
.
