TL;DR: It is presented the case that survival of bacteria that inhabit dry-climate soils are highly dependent on mechanisms, which limit protein oxidation during dehydration, which is similar to that of sensitive bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistance in bacteria isolated from the deep terrestrial subsurface.
Mindy G. Brown,David L. Balkwill +1 more
TL;DR: This study examined two deep environments that differ in their known period of isolation from surface environments and the bacteria therein, indicating that antibiotic resistance is common among subsurface bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tet 42, a Novel Tetracycline Resistance Determinant Isolated from Deep Terrestrial Subsurface Bacteria
TL;DR: Tet 42, a novel tetracycline resistance determinant from deep subsurface bacteria, was characterized and found to have a 30% sequence similarity to TetA(Z), a putative efflux pump that shares characteristics with previously characterized pumps.
Book ChapterDOI
Screening for novel antibiotic resistance genes.
TL;DR: The method described here is very simple in theory, but in actual practice, the detailed protocol will need to be optimized for each bacterial strain, vector, and cell line chosen.
