First of all, we recommend reading a complementary study led by Yannick Baffert and @sbigot.bsky.social, in which they use Tn-seq to study the genetic determinants of pOXA-48 in plasmid maintenance and conjugation. Really cool piece of work that reaches similar conclusions to ours!

Genetic determinants of pOXA-48 plasmid maintenance and propagation in Escherichia coli - Nature Communications
pOXA-48 plasmids have emerged as key vectors of carbapenem resistance within Enterobacteriaceae. In this study, the authors use a transposon sequencing (Tn-seq) approach to identify genetic determinan...
