Bacteria exploit an arsenal of antimicrobial peptides and proteins to compete with each other. Three main competition systems have been described: type six secretion systems (T6SS); contact dependent
The prevalence of carbapenem-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) is increasing worldwide. Pakistan is an endemic country for CPE. We studied the genomes of Enterobacterales isolated from the rectal swabs
Bacterial plasmids are self-replicating, extrachromosomal elements associated with a variety of phenotypic traits including virulence, enhanced fitness, and resistance to antimicrobial agents. They pl
