Journal ArticleDOI
Tetracycline Resistance Genes Persist at Aquaculture Farms in the Absence of Selection Pressure
Manu Tamminen,Antti Karkman,Andres Lõhmus,Windi I. Muziasari,Hiroyuki Takasu,Shigeki Wada,Satoru Suzuki,Marko Virta +7 more
TL;DR: The results showed greater copy numbers of tetA, tetC, tetH, and tetM at the farms compared to pristine sites and demonstrated the presence of tetE, tetG, and tetracycline resistance genes in the sediments under aquaculture farms at most sampling times.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mobile genes in the human microbiome are structured from global to individual scales
Ilana L. Brito,Ilana L. Brito,S. Yilmaz,Katherine H. Huang,L. Xu,Stacy D. Jupiter,Aaron Jenkins,Waisea Naisilisili,Manu Tamminen,Christopher Smillie,Jennifer R. Wortman,Bruce W. Birren,Ramnik J. Xavier,Ramnik J. Xavier,Ramnik J. Xavier,Paul C. Blainey,Anup K. Singh,Dirk Gevers,Eric J. Alm,Eric J. Alm +19 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the function and distribution of mobile genes in the human microbiome, and in particular whether the gene pool is globally homogenous or constrained by human population structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-throughput quantification of antibiotic resistance genes from an urban wastewater treatment plant.
Antti Karkman,Timothy A. Johnson,Christina Lyra,Robert D. Stedtfeld,Manu Tamminen,James M. Tiedje,Marko Virta +6 more
TL;DR: Wastewater discharge enriched only a few genes, namely Tn25 type transposase gene and clinical class 1 integrons, in the sediment near the discharge pipe, but those enriched genes may indicate a potential for horizontal gene transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Massively parallel sequencing of single cells by epicPCR links functional genes with phylogenetic markers
Sarah J. Spencer,Manu Tamminen,Manu Tamminen,Sarah P. Preheim,Mira Guo,Adrian W. Briggs,Ilana L. Brito,David A. Weitz,Leena K. Pitkänen,Francois Vigneault,Marko Virta,Eric J. Alm +11 more
TL;DR: EpicPCR as mentioned in this paper links functional genes and phylogenetic markers in uncultured single cells, providing a throughput of hundreds of thousands of cells with costs comparable to one genomic library preparation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Host range of antibiotic resistance genes in wastewater treatment plant influent and effluent
TL;DR: The results suggest that the studied WWTPs mostly succeed in decreasing the host range of the resistance genes during the treatment process, although there were instances where effluent contained resistance genes in bacterial groups not carrying these genes in the influent.
