AbstractBacterial conjugation is a major horizontal gene transfer mechanism. While the functions encoded by many conjugative plasmids have been intensively studied, the contribution of recipient chromosome-encoded genes remains largely unknown. Here, we analyzed the genetic requirement of recipient cells for conjugation of IncI2 plasmid TP114, which was recently shown to transfer at high rates in the gut microbiota.

AbstractTigecycline is an antibiotic of last resort for infections with carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Plasmids harboring variants of the tetracycline destructase tet(X) promote rising tigecycline resistance rates. We report the earliest observation of tet(X3) in a clinical strain predating tigecycline's commercialization, suggesting selective pressures other than tigecycline contributed to its emergence.
