The Putative Virulence Plasmid pYR4 of the Fish Pathogen Yersinia Ruckeri Is Conjugative and Stabilized by a HigBA Toxin-Antitoxin System
2024-07-24
Abstract excerpt
The bacterium Yersinia ruckeri causes enteric redmouth disease in salmonids and hence has substantial economic implications for the farmed fish industry. The Norwegian Y. ruckeri outbreak isolate NVH_3758 carries a relatively uncharacterized plasmid, pYR4, which encodes both type 4 pili and a type 4 secretion system. In this study, we demonstrate that pYR4 does not impose a growth burden on the Y. ruckeri host bac...
