Towards quantifying plasmid similarity.

Microbial genomics - 1 Sept 2024

Matlock William, Shaw Liam P, Sheppard Samuel K, Feil Edward

Abstract excerpt

Plasmids are extrachromosomal replicons which can quickly spread resistance and virulence genes between clinical pathogens. From the tens of thousands of currently available plasmid sequences we know that overall plasmid diversity is structured, with related plasmids sharing a largely conserved 'backbone' of genes while being able to carry very different genetic cargo. Moreover, plasmid genomes can be...
