Functionality of tRNAs encoded in a mobile genetic element from an acidophilic bacterium
(Taylor and Francis Inc., 2018)
© 2018, © 2018 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. The genome of the acidophilic, bioleaching bacterium Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, strain ATCC 23270, contains 95 predicted tRNA genes. Thirty-six of these genes (all 20 species) ...
Microplastic pollution increases gene exchange in aquatic ecosystems
(2018-06)
Pollution by microplastics in aquatic ecosystems is accumulating at an unprecedented scale, emerging as a new surface for biofilm formation and gene exchange. In this study, we determined the permissiveness of aquatic ...
Foreign plastid sequences in plant mitochondria are frequently acquired via mitochondrion-to-mitochondrion horizontal transfer
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-03-06)
Angiosperm mitochondrial genomes (mtDNA) exhibit variable quantities of alien sequences. Many of these sequences are acquired by intracellular gene transfer (IGT) from the plastid. In addition, frequent events of horizontal ...
Detection and transfer of antimicrobial resistance gene integron in Salmonella Enteritidis derived from avian material
(Fundação APINCO de Ciência e Tecnologia Avícolas, 2009-09-01)
The expansion of global poultry production has increased the need to reduce or control the agents responsible for economic losses, including Salmonella spp. These bacteria are also of public health concern due to their ...

Characterization of horizontally acquired ribotoxin encoding genes and their transcripts in Aedes aegypti
(Elsevier Science, 2020-09)
Ribosome Inactivating Proteins (RIPs) are RNA N-glycosidases that depurinate a specific adenine residue in the conserved sarcin/ricin loop of the 28S rRNA. The occurrence of RIP genes has been described in a wide range of ...
