GR13-type plasmids in <i>Acinetobacter</i> potentiate the accumulation and horizontal transfer of diverse accessory genes
2022-01-12
Abstract excerpt
Carbapenem resistance and other antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) can be found in plasmids in Acinetobacter , but many plasmid types in this genus have not been well-characterised. Here we describe the distribution, diversity and evolutionary capacity of rep group 13 (GR13) plasmids that are found in Acinetobacter species from diverse environments. Our investigation was prompted by the discovery of two GR13 pl...
