Models for Gut-Mediated Horizontal Gene Transfer by Bacterial Plasmid Conjugation
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 The emergence of new antimicrobial resistant and virulent bacterial strains may pose a threat to human and animal health. Bacterial plasmid conjugation is a significant contributor to rapid microbial evolutions that results in the emergence and spread of

Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals Host Factors Affecting Conjugation in Escherichia coli
Microorganisms, 2022 The emergence and dissemination of antibiotic resistance threaten the treatment of common bacterial infections. Resistance genes are often encoded on conjugative elements, which can be horizontally transferred to diverse bacteria.

A Fast and Practical Yeast Transformation Method Mediated by Escherichia coli Based on a Trans-Kingdom Conjugal Transfer System: Just Mix Two Cultures and Wait One Hour. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Trans-kingdom conjugation is a phenomenon by which DNA is transferred into a eukaryotic cell by a bacterial conjugal transfer system. Improvement in this method to facilitate the rapid co-cultivation of donor bacterial and recipient eukaryotic cell ...

Primary architecture and energy requirements of Type III and Type IV secretion systems
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 Many pathogens use Type III and Type IV protein secretion systems to secrete virulence factors from the bacterial cytosol into host cells. These systems operate through a one-step mechanism. The secreted substrates (protein or nucleo-protein complexes in

Real-time visualisation of the intracellular dynamics of conjugative plasmid transfer
Nature Communications, 2023 Conjugation is a contact-dependent mechanism for the transfer of plasmid DNA between bacterial cells. Here, Couturier et al. use live-cell microscopy to visualise the intracellular dynamics of conjugation in real time, revealing a molecular strategy that
