🆕Read my short perspective on
@daganlab.bsky.social's intriguing
@currentbiology.bsky.social paper that examined plasmid-mediated gene mobilisation by comparing plasmid cargoes with chromosomal sequences across almost 2000 isolates, now in Trends in Microbiology 💻💫🧬

Loading and unloading plasmid cargoes
Plasmids are vehicles for horizontal gene transfer between cells, but they also exchange
genes with associated chromosomes in a process termed 'intracellular mobility'. I
