pCTX-M3—Structure, Function and Evolution of a Multi-Resistance Conjugative Plasmid of a Broad Recipient Range

pCTX-M3—Structure, Function and Evolution of a Multi-Resistance Conjugative Plasmid of a Broad Recipient Range

pCTX-M3 is the archetypic member of the IncM incompatibility group of conjugative plasmids (recently referred to as IncM2). It is responsible for the worldwide dissemination of numerous antibiotic resistance genes, including those coding for extended-spectrum β-lactamases and conferring resistance t...
