A novel method to discover fluoroquinolone antibiotic resistance (qnr) genes in fragmented nucleotide sequences
BACKGROUND: Broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotics are central in modern health care and are used to treat and prevent a wide range of bacterial infections. The recently discovered qnr genes provide a mechanism of resistance with the potential to rapidly spread between bacteria using horizontal...
