Spectroscopy, Structure, Biomacromolecular Interactions, and Antiproliferation Activity of a Fe(II) Complex With DPA-Bpy as Pentadentate Ligand
The interaction of the Fe complex with plasmid DNA was analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The supercoiled pBR322 DNA alone was used as the control and then pBR322 DNA (2 μg) and the Fe complex ...

Pathogen invasion-dependent tissue reservoirs and plasmid-encoded antibiotic degradation boost plasmid spread in the gut
In particular, this should pertain to plasmid-encoded resistance genes encoding enzymes degrading antibiotics with an extra-cytoplasmic target (e.g. beta-lactamases). Extended spectrum beta-lactamases ...
