Rebooting Synthetic Phage-Inducible Chromosomal Islands: One Method to Forge Them All
Phage-inducible chromosomal islands (PICIs) are a widespread family of mobile genetic elements, which have an important role in bacterial pathogenesis. These elements mobilize among bacterial species at extremely high frequencies, representing an attractive tool for the delivery of synthetic genes....
