Is the bacterial chromosome a mobile genetic element? [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 An outcome of phage infection, lateral transduction, has been shown to mobilize chromosomal genes between bacterial cells at rates that exceed those of mobile genetic elements such as plasmids.

Mobile genetic elements – mechanism and consequences of transposition
Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2017 Retrotransposons represent a significant part of the genome in eukaryote organisms. With DNA transposons, they belong to mobile genetic elements. There are two classes of transposons, DNA transposons and retrotransposons.

POPULATION GENETICS OF AN EXPANDING FAMILY OF MOBILE GENETIC ELEMENTS [PDF]
Genetics, 1986 ABSTRACT A model of an expanding family of dispersed repetitive DNA was studied. Based on the previous result of the model of duplicative transposition, an approximate solution to give allelism and identity coefficients as functions of time was obtained, and theoretical predictions were verified by Monte Carlo experiments.

Mobile Genetic Elements in Streptococci [PDF]
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2019 Streptococci are a group of Gram-positive bacteria belonging to the family Streptococcaceae, which are responsible of multiple diseases. Some of these species can cause invasive infection that may result in life-threatening illness. Moreover, antibiotic-resistant bacteria are considerably increasing, thus imposing a global consideration.

Identification of mobile genetic elements with geNomad
Nature Biotechnology, 2023 AbstractIdentifying and characterizing mobile genetic elements in sequencing data is essential for understanding their diversity, ecology, biotechnological applications and impact on public health. Here we introduce geNomad, a classification and annotation framework that combines information from gene content and a deep neural network to identify ...

Integrated mobile genetic elements in Thaumarchaeota [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, 2019 SummaryTo explore the diversity of mobile genetic elements (MGE) associated with archaea of the phylum Thaumarchaeota, we exploited the property of most MGE to integrate into the genomes of their hosts. Integrated MGE (iMGE) were identified in 20 thaumarchaeal genomes amounting to 2 Mbp of mobile thaumarchaeal DNA.

Mobile genetic elements of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2010 Bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus are successful as commensal organisms or pathogens in part because they adapt rapidly to selective pressures imparted by the human host. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) play a central role in this adaptation process and are a means to transfer genetic information (DNA) among and within bacterial species ...
