Plasmid-mediated metronidazole resistance in Clostridioides difficile
Cases of C. difficile (CD) resistant to metronidazole have been reported but the mechanism remains enigmatic. Here the authors identify a plasmid, which correlates with metronidazole resistance status in a large international collection of CD isolates, and demonstrate that the plasmid can confer met...
