Prevalence of blaKPC-2, blaKPC-3 and blaKPC-30—Carrying Plasmids in Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated in a Brazilian Hospital

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) actively hydrolyzes carbapenems, antibiotics often used a last-line treatment for multidrug-resistant bacteria. KPC clinical relevance resides in its widespread dissemination.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Properties of Fluoroquinolone-Resistant, qnr-Carrying Escherichia coli Isolated from the German Food Chain in 2017

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Fluoroquinolones are the highest priority, critically important antimicrobial agents. Resistance development can occur via different mechanisms, with plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) being prevalent in the livestock and food area. Especially,

Repository-based plasmid design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
There was an explosion in the amount of commercially available DNA in sequence repositories over the last decade. The number of such plasmids increased from 12,000 to over 300,000 among three of the largest repositories: iGEM, Addgene, and DNASU.

High-Yield Expression and Purification of Recombinant Influenza Virus Proteins from Stably-Transfected Mammalian Cell Lines

open access: yesVaccines, 2020
Influenza viruses infect millions of people each year, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality in the human population. Therefore, generation of a universal influenza virus vaccine is an urgent need and would greatly benefit public health ...

Plasmid-Mediated Antibiotic Resistant Escherichia coli in Sarawak Rivers and Aquaculture Farms, Northwest of Borneo

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Background: The emergence of plasmid-mediated antibiotic resistance in Escherichia coli in water resources could pose a serious threat to public health. The study aims to investigate the dispersion of plasmid-mediated antibiotic-resistant E.

Iteron Plasmids

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2014
ABSTRACT Iteron-containing plasmids are model systems for studying the metabolism of extrachromosomal genetic elements in bacterial cells. Here we describe the current knowledge and understanding of the structure of iteron-containing replicons, the structure of the iteron plasmid encoded replication initiation proteins, and the molecular ...

Universal whole-sequence-based plasmid typing and its utility to prediction of host range and epidemiological surveillance

open access: yesMicrobial Genomics, 2020
Bacterial plasmids play a large role in allowing bacteria to adapt to changing environments and can pose a significant risk to human health if they confer virulence and antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

Plasmids of corynebacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1999
Corynebacteria are pleomorphic, asporogenous, Gram-positive bacteria. Included in this group are nonpathogenic soil corynebacteria, which are widely used for the industrial production of amino acids and detergents, and in biotransformation of steroids. Other members of this group are plant and animal pathogens.

On the isolation of TI-plasmid from Agrobacterium tumefaciens [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
An efficient lysis method for Agrobacterium cells was developed, which allows a reproducible isolation of the tumor inducing (TI)-plasmid. The lysis method is based on the sensitivity of this bacterium to incubation with lysozyme, n-dodecylamine,EDTA ...
