DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-9877-7_19
Abstract: We present a computational method to identify conjugative systems in plasmids and chromosomes using the CONJscan module of MacSyFinder. The method relies on the identification of the protein components of the system using hidden Markov… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41597-021-01112-5
Abstract: Bacterial integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are highly modular mobile genetic elements critical to the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance and virulence factor genes. To better understand and analyze the ongoing increase of ICEs, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/aem.00337-17
Abstract: ABSTRACT Integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are widespread chromosomal mobile genetic elements which can transfer autonomously by conjugation in bacteria. Thirteen ICEs with a conjugation module closely related to that of ICESt3 of Streptococcus thermophilus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/jb.00245-17
Abstract: ABSTRACT Intense biological conflicts between prokaryotic genomes and their genomic parasites have resulted in an arms race in terms of the molecular “weaponry” deployed on both sides. Using a recursive computational approach, we uncovered a… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.02072
Abstract: The self-transferring integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are large genomic segments carrying several bacterial adaptive functions including antimicrobial resistance (AMR). SXT/R391 family is one of the ICEs extensively studied in cholera-causing pathogen Vibrio cholerae. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.986824
Abstract: Integrative conjugative elements (ICEs) are important carriers for disseminating resistance genes. We have previously reported a novel element ICEHpa1 carrying seven antibiotic resistance genes, which could be self-transmissible relying on the novel T4SS. To identify… read more here.
