Integron-mediated Multidrug Resistance in a Global Collection of Nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica Isolates

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Salmonella enterica bacteria have become increasingly resistant to antimicrobial agents, partly as a result of genes carried on integrons. Clonal expansion and horizontal gene transfer may contribute to the spread of antimicrobial drug–resistance ...

Current and Promising Approaches to Identify Horizontal Gene Transfer Events in Metagenomes

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2019
High-throughput shotgun metagenomics sequencing has enabled the profiling of myriad natural communities. These data are commonly used to identify gene families and pathways that were potentially gained or lost in an environment and which may be involved ...

Reconstructing Gene Trees From Fitch's Xenology Relation

open access: yes, 2018
Two genes are xenologs in the sense of Fitch if they are separated by at least one horizontal gene transfer event. Horizonal gene transfer is asymmetric in the sense that the transferred copy is distinguished from the one that remains within the ...

Prokaryotic horizontal gene transfer within the human holobiont: ecological-evolutionary inferences, implications and possibilities

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2018
The ubiquity of horizontal gene transfer in the living world, especially among prokaryotes, raises interesting and important scientific questions regarding its effects on the human holobiont i.e., the human and its resident bacterial communities ...

The chromosomal organization of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Bacterial adaptation is accelerated by the acquisition of novel traits through horizontal gene transfer, but the integration of these genes affects genome organization.

Mitochondrial Genome Transfer to Tumor Cells Breaks The Rules and Establishes a New Precedent in Cancer Biology

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2018
Horizontal gene transfer is known to occur in bacteria and archaea whereas higher organisms including mammals undergo vertical transfer. Our recent results demonstrate horizontal transfer of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from normal host cells to tumor cells
