Highly host-linked viromes in the built environment possess habitat-dependent diversity and functions for potential virus-host coevolution.

PMID 37160974 · 2023

The study identifies antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in viruses inhabiting surfaces frequently touched by occupants and in viruses inhabiting occupants' skin, highlighting the presence of beta-lactamases, erythromycin resistance genes, vancomycin resistance genes, and tetracycline resistance genes in built environment viromes.
