Plasmid-chromosome transcriptional crosstalk in multidrug resistant clinical enterobacteria

Laura Toribio-Celestino, Alicia Calvo‐Villamañán, Cristina Herencias, Aida Alonso-del Valle, Jorge Sastre-Domínguez, Susana Quesada, Didier Mazel, Eduardo P. C. Rocha, Ariadna Fernández-Calvet, Álvaro San Millán

The paper investigates plasmid-chromosome transcriptional interactions in multidrug-resistant bacteria, finding that a plasmid-encoded regulator drives chromosomal operon overexpression, enhancing bacterial fitness and carbapenem resistance dissemination.
