Integrated mobile genetic elements in Thaumarchaeota [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, 2019 Summary To 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 ...

Identification of mobile genetic elements with geNomad
Nature Biotechnology, 2023 Abstract Identifying 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

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 ...

Mobile genetic element-encoded putative DNA primases composed of A-family polymerase—SSB pairs
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023 Mobile genetic elements can encode a wide variety of genes that support their own stability and mobility as well as genes that provide accessory functions to their hosts.

The ecology of transfer of mobile genetic elements [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2002 The ecological aspects of the transfer and spread of mobile genetic elements (MGE) are reviewed in the context of the emerging evidence for the dominant role that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has played in the evolutionary shaping of bacterial communities. Novel tools are described that allow a refined analysis of HGT in natural settings.
