elements, containing the genes necessary for their excision, conjugative transfer, and …

Integrative conjugative elements (ICE) are a diverse group of chromosomally integrated, self-
transmissible mobile genetic elements (MGE) that are active in shaping the functions of …

Integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are self-transmissible mobile elements that
transfer functional genetic units across broad phylogenetic distances. Accessory genes …

Horizontal gene transfer mediated by integrative and conjugative elements (ICE) is
considered an important evolutionary mechanism of bacteria. It allows organisms to quickly …

Background Integrative and conjugative elements (ICE) form a diverse group of DNA
elements that are integrated in the chromosome of the bacterial host, but can occasionally …

Integrative and conjugating elements (ICE) are self-transferable DNAs widely present in
bacterial genomes, which often carry a variety of auxiliary genes of potential adaptive …

Integrating and conjugative elements (ICEs) are one of the three principal types of self-
transmissible mobile genetic elements in bacteria. ICEs, like plasmids, transfer via …

The integrative and conjugative element ICE clc is a mobile genetic element in
Pseudomonas knackmussii B13, and an experimental model for a widely distributed group …

Genomic islands, large potentially mobile regions of bacterial chromosomes, are a major
contributor to bacteria evolution. Here, we investigated the fitness cost and phenotypic …

Integrating conjugative elements (ICEs) are a class of bacterial mobile genetic elements that
