Biology of Three ICE Families: SXT/R391, ICEBs1, and ICESt1/ICESt3.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Dec 2014

Carraro Nicolas, Burrus Vincent

Abstract excerpt

Integrative and Conjugative Elements (ICEs) are bacterial mobile genetic elements that play a key role in bacterial genomes dynamics and evolution. ICEs are widely distributed among virtually all bacterial genera. Recent extensive studies have unraveled their high diversity and complexity. The present review depicts the general conserved features of ICEs and describes more precisely three major families of ICEs...
