Context-driven discovery of gene cassettes in mobile integrons using a computational grammar [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2009 Background Gene discovery algorithms typically examine sequence data for low level patterns. A novel method to computationally discover higher order DNA structures is presented, using a context sensitive grammar.

Extensions of MADM (mosaic analysis with double markers) in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers (MADM) is a method for generating genetically mosaic mice, in which sibling mutant and wild-type cells are labeled with different fluorescent markers. It is a powerful tool that enables analysis of gene function at the

Recovery and evolutionary analysis of complete integron gene cassette arrays from
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2006 Background Integrons are genetic elements capable of the acquisition, rearrangement and expression of genes contained in gene cassettes. Gene cassettes generally consist of a promoterless gene associated with a recombination site known as a 59-base ...

The function of integron-associated genes cassettes in Vibrio species: the tip of the iceberg
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 The integron is a genetic element that incorporates mobile genes termed gene cassettes into a reserved genetic site via site-specific recombination. It is best known for its role in antibiotic resistance with one type of integron, the class 1 integron, a

Detection of Novel Integrons in the Metagenome of Human Saliva.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Integrons are genetic elements capable of capturing and expressing open reading frames (ORFs) embedded within gene cassettes. They are involved in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in clinically important pathogens.

Nanopore sequencing analysis of integron gene cassettes in sewages and soils
, 2022 Integrons are genetic elements that can facilitate rapid spread of antibiotic resistance by insertion and removal of genes. However, knowledge about the diversity and distribution of gene cassettes embedded in class 1 integron is still limited.
