  1. New publication: The effects of #ecologicalinteractions and distinct conjugation rates on the invasion of a conjugative #plasmid in bacterial communities. #genetransfer

  2. Excited to kick off #IMMEMXIV in Porto, Portugal with the first session focusing on #plasmid typing for surveillance! A fantastic session thanks to our 5 great speakers and now we are going into the first debate session on strain typing in high-income vs low-resource settings. #IDSky #clinmicro

  6. #gamers! This week's episode is a fight a long time coming, as we find out who would win between #Dishonored protagonist #corvoattano and #Bioshock protagonist #jackwynand! Outsider #Magic meets #Plasmid Powers! Wanna know who wins? Tune in now! #podcast #gaming #fyp #explorepage

  7. How best to avoid the costs of bearing a plasmid? @rctwright @jpjhall &co find it's best for #bacteria to compensate plasmids by chromosomal (not plasmid-borne) mutations, resulting in 'hubs' for #plasmid accumulation evolution & dissemination #PLOSBiology plos.io/3ODbXdN

  8. Becoming a big fan of whole #plasmid sequencing for new constructs (Nanopore). Also a big fan of Q5 and Phusion polymerases for their accuracy and of the Hot Fusion variant of the Gibson assembly for its price and convenience (no ligation required!)

  9. More than 90% of all people in industrialised nations carry a mysterious gene sequence in their gut flora. This #plasmid could serve as a biomarker, according to a team from @HIFMB_OL & @UChicago in @CellCellPress. @UniOldenburg

  11. It's official, the final version of our newest research is out in The ISME Journal: "Bacteria use a catabolic patchwork pathway of apparently recent origin for degradation of the synthetic buffer compound TRIS"

    Read all about how #Pseudomonas and other #bacteria have learned to eat our well-beloved #TRIS buffer.

  18. 'Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a leading cause of sexually transmitted disease and a concern due to increasing AMR. It contains a restricted repertoire of plasmids, including a conjugative plasmid, pConj, which disseminates plasmid-mediated AMR. We show that, in contrast to broad host range plasmids, pConj is largely restricted to and adapted to N. gonorrhoeae, and has been remarkably conserved since it first emerged over 80 years ago.'

  19. Bacteria as playgrounds for MGEs:

    How it started - How it's going.

    Who interacts with whom? Who defends from what? Things are getting complex...

  24. A two-part resurrection tale (1|2)

    by Christoph
    Besides a resurrection tale that I'll re­late to in the se­cond part, this post will be about an­ti-de­fense sys­tems of plas­mids as an in­trin­sic part of the seem­ing­ly end­less arms race bet­ween con­ju­ga­tive ele­ments and their hosts. Still, I am not in­clined to act as war cor­res­pon­dent, and cer­tain­ly not at a time...

  29. A great open-source #plasmid editor was packed as a desktop application for Linux, Mac or Windows. I am very impressed by the ergonomy and the available features and I hope the #teselagen company will maintain this software open source in the future.

  30. The C. psittaci BF_amazon_parrot13 strain's complete #genome was sequenced, revealing a circular chromosome (1,160,701 bp, GenBank: CP110211) & a chlamydial #plasmid (7,553 bp, GenBank: CP110212) 🧬 #genomics #microbiology #_BRIG

  31. Plasmids manipulate host cells to their benefit. @Catriona1392 @BrockhurstLab &co describe a #plasmid-borne translational regulator that subverts ecological traits in #bacteria, inducing community organization & promoting plasmid transmission #PLOSBiology plos.io/3I4NES6

  34. ...and the environment selects !

    As someone with long term interests in #HorizontalGeneTransfer , I'm really interested in this new research exploring environment-specific selection of #plasmid adaptive traits in #bacteria
