This study identifies bacteriocin genes co-occurring with antibiotic resistance and virulence factors in gut E. coli, highlighting their role in microbial dynamics and resistance dissemination.

This study compares tet(X4)-containing contigs from metagenomic data with plasmid sequences from isolates in a healthy cohort, finding high similarity and co-occurrence of resistance genes.

The paper uses long-read and Hi-C technologies to analyze gut microbiomes from Southeast Asians, revealing novel species, improved references, and uncharacterized biosynthetic gene clusters.
