Mammalian small nucleolar RNAs are mobile genetic elements. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2006
Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) of the H/ACA box and C/D box categories guide the pseudouridylation and the 2'-O-ribose methylation of ribosomal RNAs by forming short duplexes with their target.

Mobile genetic elements of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

open access: hybridCellular 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 ...

Mobile Genetic Elements in Streptococci [PDF]

open access: goldCurrent 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.

The defense island repertoire of the Escherichia coli pan-genome.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2023
It has become clear in recent years that anti-phage defense systems cluster non-randomly within bacterial genomes in so-called "defense islands". Despite serving as a valuable tool for the discovery of novel defense systems, the nature and distribution ...

Mobile genetic elements – mechanism and consequences of transposition

open access: yesJournal 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.
