The integrase of genomic island GIsul2 mediates the mobilization of GIsul2 and ISCR-related element CR2-sul2 unit through site-specific recombination

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
In the worldwide health threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens, mobile genetic elements (MGEs) play a critical role in favoring the dissemination of resistance genes.

Retroviral integrases and their cousins [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 1996
The recently determined structures of the catalytic domains of HIV integrase, avian sarcoma virus integrase and the Mu transposase are strikingly similar to each other and also exhibit significant similarity to several nucleases. All these enzymes of cut polynucleotides, leaving 3'OH and 5'PO4 groups. The integrase and transposase also possess a strand-

HIV-1 Genetic Diversity and Natural Polymorphisms of the Integrase Gene in Integrase Inhibitor-Naive Patients in Harare, Zimbabwe.

open access: yes, 2021
Previously used as part of salvage therapy, integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) have become part of the preferred antiretroviral therapy (ART) first-line regimen in most low- to middle-income countries. With the extensive use of dolutegravir in

Prophage Integrase Typing Is a Useful Indicator of Genomic Diversity in Salmonella enterica

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Salmonella enterica is a bacterial species that is a major cause of illness in humans and food-producing animals. S. enterica exhibits considerable inter-serovar diversity, as evidenced by the large number of host adapted serovars that have been ...

The large plasmid carried class 1 integrons mediated multidrug resistance of foodborne Salmonella Indiana

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Salmonella enterica serovar Indiana (S. Indiana) has aroused widespread concern as an important zoonotic pathogen. The molecular mechanism of multidrug resistance (MDR) in S. Indiana is not known and should be assessed.

New Applications for Phage Integrases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2014
Within the last 25 years, bacteriophage integrases have rapidly risen to prominence as genetic tools for a wide range of applications from basic cloning to genome engineering. Serine integrases such as that from ϕC31 and its relatives have found an especially wide range of applications within diverse micro-organisms right through to multi-cellular ...

Characterization of HIV-1 integrase interaction with human Ku70 protein and initial implications for drug targeting

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Human Ku70/Ku80 protein is known to influence HIV-1 replication. One of the possible reasons may be the protection of integrase from proteasomal degradation by Ku70 subunit. We demonstrated that recombinant HIV-1 integrase and Ku70 form a stable complex,

Integrase-On-Demand: bioprospecting integrases for targeted genomic insertion of genetic cargo. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res
ABSTRACT Integrases recognize defined sites within DNA and facilitate homologous recombination-independent transfer of genetic fragments. These innate capabilities render integrases as powerful biotechnology tools that mediate efficient site-specific integration of large genetic cargos.

5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridine Derivatives as Potent HIV-1-Integrase-Allosteric-Site Inhibitors

open access: yes, 2019
A series of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridine derivatives targeting the allosteric lens-epithelium-derived-growth-factor-p75 (LEDGF/p75)-binding site on HIV-1 integrase, an attractive target for antiviral chemotherapy, was prepared and screened for ...
