Comparative analysis of Listeria monocytogenes plasmid transcriptomes reveals common and plasmid‐specific gene expression patterns and high expression of noncoding RNAs

MicrobiologyOpen, 2022
Recent research demonstrated that some Listeria monocytogenes plasmids contribute to stress survival. However, only a few studies have analyzed gene expression patterns of L. monocytogenes plasmids.

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 ...

Iteron Plasmids

Microbiology 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 ...

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 ...

Comparative genomic analysis of plasmids harboring blaOXA-48-like genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
The emergence and spread of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is a serious medical problem worldwide. Acquired OXA-48-like carbapenemases encoded by plasmids are important causes of carbapenem resistance in K. pneumoniae.
