Mobile genetic elements in shaping Klebsiella pneumoniae pathogenicity [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Klebsiella pneumoniae has evolved from an opportunistic pathogen into a formidable global threat, with hypervirulent strains now causing severe infections in healthy individuals and carbapenem-resistant variants achieving mortality rates exceeding 42 ...

Detection of mobile genetic elements in multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from different infection sites in Hamadan, west of Iran [PDF]

BMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of most opportunistic pathogens that can be related to nosocomial infections. Increased acquisitions of multidrug resistance in this bacterium as well as the transfer of genes to other strains have caused concern ...

Bacterial chromosomal mobility via lateral transduction exceeds that of classical mobile genetic elements

Nature Communications, 2021
It is commonly thought that horizontal transfer of most bacterial chromosomal genes is limited, in comparison with the frequent transfer of mobile genetic elements. Humphrey et al.

MGERT: a pipeline to retrieve coding sequences of mobile genetic elements from genome assemblies [PDF]

Mobile DNA, 2019
Background Genomes of eukaryotes are inhabited by myriads of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) – transposons and retrotransposons - which play a great role in genome plasticity and evolution.

Composite mobile genetic elements disseminating macrolide resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Macrolide resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae emerged in the US and globally during the early 1990’s. The RNA methylase encoded by erm(B) and the macrolide efflux genes mef(E) and mel were identified as the resistance determining factors.
