Limited and strain-specific transcriptional and growth responses to acquisition of a multidrug resistance plasmid in genetically diverse <i>Escherichia coli</i> lineages
2020-10-23
Abstract excerpt
Multi-drug resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli are a major global threat to human health, wherein multi-drug resistance is primarily spread by MDR plasmid acquisition. MDR plasmids are not widely distributed across the entire E. coli species, but instead are concentrated in a small number of clones. Here, we test if diverse E. coli strains vary in their ability to acquire and maintain MDR plasmids, and if this rel...
