Compatibility of Site-Specific Recombination Units between Mobile Genetic Elements

iScience, 2020
Summary: Site-specific recombination (SSR) systems are employed for transfer of mobile genetic elements (MGEs), such as lysogenic phages and integrative conjugative elements (ICEs).

Functional Traits Co-Occurring with Mobile Genetic Elements in the Microbiome of the Atacama Desert [PDF]

, 2019
Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) play an essential role in bacterial adaptation and evolution. These elements are enriched within bacterial communities from extreme environments. However, very little is known if specific genes co-occur with MGEs in extreme

Recruitment of Mobile Genetic Elements for Diverse Cellular Functions in Prokaryotes

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Prokaryotic genomes are replete with mobile genetic elements (MGE) that span a continuum of replication autonomy. On numerous occasions during microbial evolution, diverse MGE lose their autonomy altogether but, rather than being quickly purged from the ...

Mobile DNA can drive lineage extinction in prokaryotic populations [PDF]

, 2010
Natural selection ultimately acts on genes and other DNA sequences. Adaptations that are good for the gene can have adverse effects at higher levels of organization, including the individual or the population.

Selfish, promiscuous and sometimes useful: how mobile genetic elements drive horizontal gene transfer in microbial populations

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2021
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) drives microbial adaptation but is often under the control of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) whose interests are not necessarily aligned with those of their hosts.

Unveiling Mobilizable Multiresistance Clusters in Marine Bacteria

Engineering Proceedings, 2023
The occurrence and spread of antibiotic resistance have become a pressing global health concern. Understanding the genetic elements that facilitate the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in marine environments is crucial for effective ...
