a

Frequency (%) computed from the gut-associated metagenome samples in the Human Microbiome Project II (48) (n = 553).

b

Genes associated with molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis (22), including those described as critical for anaerobic deglycosylation of doxorubicin (13).

c

Species confirmed from processing16S rRNA gene amplicon sequences in BLAST. Multidrug export and Moco biosynthesis genes were screened from the human microbiome project reference genome for E. faecium (GenBank Assembly accession no. GCA_000174395.2).

d

Genes reported were based on whole-genome sequence assemblies for the isolates or, where indicated, reference genome.
