Diverse new plasmid structures and antimicrobial resistance in strains isolated from perianal abscess patients

Abstract excerpt

Introduction Plasmids, the most important and versatile bacterial extrachromosomal DNA Molecules, has have been a center central topic for bacterial genetics and biology. However, the inability of short-read high-throughput sequencing methods to reliably assemble plasmids makes it difficult to investigate the diversity of plasmid structures and functions. Methods In this work, we used the long-read Nanopore...
