Abstract

Introduction
antibiotic resistance is usually studied in clinical environments
metagenomes environments
The target of antibiotic resistance genes in natural environments should be considered, specially if we consider that these genes have a long evolutionary history in natural environments, where originated more than two billions years ago (
Aminov 2009).
metageno mes offer the opportunity to assess antibiotic resistance in non clinical environments
The presence and diversity of b-lacatamases in different environments could shed light about both b-lactamase gene transfer between environments and the anthropogenic impact in natural environments.

Data set
Shotgun metagenomic sequences obtained by Illumina sequencing process were used in this study and downloaded from two repositories, MG-RAST (
http://metagenomics.anl.gov/) and EBI METAGENOMICS (
https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics/;jsessionid=5B7CC5F7C4C8CD7C9FB5F7E8A4D1C621). A total of 232 metagenomes related to X different projects (Table S1) embedding 4.7 billion sequences, were retrieved after quality control steps performed by each repositorie. Each metagenome was associated with different sampling habitats including soil (undisturbed and
agricultural), agricultural soils), fresh water, ocean, glaciers, human gut, animal gut (rumen and feces), and effluents from wastewater treatment plants.
Construction of a comprehensive β-lactamases
database
Characterization of metagenome sequences associated to β-lactamase genes was preceded by construction of an
extensive β-lactamase database (EX-B) that integrated four clinically-important
publically-available databases: The Lahey β-lactamase database,
