Going around in circles: virulence plasmids in enteric pathogens go.nature.com/2LO19YF In this Review, Pilla and Tang discuss virulence plasmids in enteric pathogens and mechanisms for their maintenance in bacterial populations Dunn_School (now @DunnSchool.bsky.social)

Interesting paper comparing ICEs and plasmids: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2990587…

Horizontal Gene Transfer between different species of bacteria is amazing. Like if a seagull sneezed on you and you woke up with two beautiful wings the next morning. Radiolab has taken on the subject along with Carl Zimmer in an interesting podcast! wnycstudios.org/story/infectiv…
