Integron Diversity in Heavy-Metal-Contaminated Mine Tailings and Inferences about Integron Evolution [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004 ABSTRACTIntegrons are horizontal gene transfer (HGT) systems containing elements necessary for site-specific recombination and expression of foreign DNA. The overall phylogenetic distribution of integrons and range of genes that can be transferred by integrons are unknown.

Integrons: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]
Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2014 SUMMARY Integrons are versatile gene acquisition systems commonly found in bacterial genomes. They are ancient elements that are a hot spot for genomic complexity, generating phenotypic diversity and shaping adaptive responses. In recent times, they have had a major role in the acquisition, expression, and dissemination of antibiotic ...

Mobile Genetic Elements, 2012 Integrons are genetic elements first described at the end of the 1980s. Although most integrons were initially described in human clinical isolates, they have now been identified in many non-clinical environments, such as water and soil. Integrons are present in ≈10% of the sequenced bacterial genomes and are frequently linked to mobile genetic ...

Rapid reconstruction of multidrug‐resistant bacterial genomes using CycloneSEQ nanopore sequencing
iMetaOmics, EarlyView.Multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria commonly harbor highly complex genomes enriched with mobile elements and resistance islands, which are challenging to resolve using short‐read sequencing. Here, we evaluated CycloneSEQ, a newly developed Chinese nanopore sequencing platform, for MDR genome reconstruction.
