Gene sharing among plasmids and chromosomes reveals barriers for antibiotic resistance gene transfer

The emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria is a major threat to modern medicine. Rapid adaptation to antibiotics is often mediated by the acquisition of plasmids carrying antibiotic resistance (ABR) genes. Nonetheless, the determinants of plasmid-mediated ABR gene transfer remain debated. Here,...
