Genomic islands targeting dusA in Vibrio species are distantly related to Salmonella Genomic Island 1 and mobilizable by IncC conjugative plasmids.
Salmonella Genomic Island 1 (SGI1) and its variants are significant contributors to the spread of antibiotic resistance among Gammaproteobacteria. All known SGI1 variants integrate at the 3' end of trmE, a gene coding for a tRNA modification enzyme. SGI1 variants are mobilized specifically by c...
