Frequent, phylogenetically local horizontal transfer of the cox1 group I intron in flowering plant mitochondria
(Oxford University Press, 2008-06)
Horizontal gene transfer is surprisingly common among plant mitochondrial genomes. The first well-established case involves a homing group I intron in the mitochondrial cox1 gene shown to have been frequently acquired via ...
A multispecies outbreak of carbapenem-resistant bacteria harboring the blaKPC gene in a non-classical transposon element
(2021)
Klebsiella pneumoniae is the most frequent KPC-producing bacteria. The blaKPC gene is frequently embedded in Tn4401 transposon, and less frequently in non-Tn4401 elements (NTEKPC) variants I-III. The first case of KPC in ...
Horizontal gene transfers dominate the functional mitochondrial gene space of a holoparasitic plant
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-02)
Although horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is common in angiosperm mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs), few cases of functional foreign genes have been identified. The one outstanding candidate for large-scale functional HGT is the ...
Detection and transfer of antimicrobial resistance gene integron in Salmonella Enteritidis derived from avian material
(Fundação APINCO de Ciência e Tecnologia Avícolas, 2014)
Broad host range plasmids can invade an unexpectedly diverse fraction of a soil bacterial community
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-10)
Conjugal plasmids can provide microbes with full complements of new genes and constitute potent vehicles for horizontal gene transfer. Conjugal plasmid transfer is deemed responsible for the rapid spread of antibiotic ...
First report of Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 6D in South America
(American Society for Microbiology, 2011)
Streptococcus pneumoniae includes the two serotypes 6A and 6B as well as two recently discovered serotypes, 6C and 6D, in which the wciNα gene is replaced by wciNβ within the cps locus. Serotype 6D occurrence in Asia (2, ...
