1/ Antibiotic resistance causes ➕ than 1 M deaths each year and understanding why this happens is key to stopping it.
With #HealthResearch support, @sanmillan.bsky.social is investigating how different plasmids (DNA fragments) coexist in bacteria and confer resistance.

And this is also what we see experimentally! Defensive or co-invading CRISPR-Cas are always beneficial, but offensive CRISPR is severely limited by and even detrimental when there is TA.
