Genetic basis of I-complex plasmid stability and conjugation

Plasmids are major drivers of increasing antibiotic resistance, necessitating an urgent need to understand their biology. Here we describe a detailed dissection of the molecular components controlling the genetics of I-complex plasmids, a group of antibiotic resistance plasmids found frequently in p...
