Expression of a novel class of bacterial Ig-like proteins is required for IncHI plasmid conjugation.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is currently one of the most important challenges to the treatment of bacterial infections. A critical issue to combat AMR is to restrict its spread. In several instances, bacterial plasmids are involved in the global spread of AMR. Plasmids belonging to the incompatib...
