Repository-based plasmid design [PDF]

, 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.

Plasmid-encoded tet(X) genes that confer high-level tigecycline resistance in Escherichia coli

Nature Microbiology, 2019
Tigecycline is one of the last-resort antibiotics to treat complicated infections caused by both multidrug-resistant Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria1.

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

, 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 ...

Parallel compensatory evolution stabilizes plasmids across the parasitism-mutualism continuum [PDF]

, 2015
Plasmids drive genomic diversity in bacteria via horizontal gene transfer [1 and 2]; nevertheless, explaining their survival in bacterial populations is challenging [3].

Identification of a novel plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance gene, mcr-2, in Escherichia coli, Belgium, June 2016.

Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin, 2016
We identified a novel plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance gene in porcine and bovine colistin-resistant Escherichia coli that did not contain mcr-1. The gene, termed mcr-2, a 1,617 bp phosphoethanolamine transferase harboured on an IncX4 plasmid, has 76.

Protective effect of interleukin-36 receptor antagonist on liver injury induced by concanavalin A in mice [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2020
Objective(s): Interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra) is a new member of the IL-1 family that exhibits anti-inflammatory activity in a variety of inflammatory and immune diseases. Our purpose was to determine the effect of IL-36Ra on liver injury in

PlasFlow: predicting plasmid sequences in metagenomic data using genome signatures

Nucleic Acids Research, 2018
Plasmids are mobile genetics elements that play an important role in the environmental adaptation of microorganisms. Although plasmids are usually analyzed in cultured microorganisms, there is a need for methods that allow for the analysis of pools of ...

The evolution of plasmid-carried antibiotic resistance

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Antibiotic resistance represents a significant public health problem. When resistance genes are mobile, being carried on plasmids or phages, their spread can be greatly accelerated.

First Report of Coexistence of Three Different MDR Plasmids, and That of Occurrence of IMP-Encoding Plasmid in Leclercia adecarboxylata

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Three different MDR plasmids p16005813A, p16005813B, and p16005813C, which carried a total of 18 non-redundant resistance genes or gene loci, were identified in a single clinical isolate of Leclercia adecarboxylata.
