Dissecting pOXA-48 fitness effects in clinical enterobacteria using plasmid-wide CRISPRi screens
2025-01-24
Abstract excerpt
Conjugative plasmids are the main vehicle for the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes in clinical bacteria. AMR plasmids allow bacteria to survive antibiotic treatments, but they also produce physiological alterations in their hosts that commonly translate into fitness costs. Despite the key role of plasmid-associated fitness effects in AMR evolution, their origin and molecular bases remain poorly under...
