Sequence and functional analyses of Haemophilusspp. genomic islands (2007)

Juhas, Mario, Power, Peter M, Harding, Rosalind M, Ferguson, David JP, Dimopoulou, Ioanna D, Elamin, Abdel RE, ...

Abstract Background A major part of horizontal gene transfer that contributes to the diversification and adaptation of bacteria is facilitated by genomic islands. The evolution of these islands is...

Site-Specific Recombination with the Chromosomal tRNALeu Gene by the Large Conjugative Haemophilus Resistance Plasmid

Dimopoulou, Ioanna D., Russell, Joanne E., Mohd-Zain, Zaini, Herbert, Rebecca, Crook, Derrick W.

Characterization of the sequences involved in recombination of the Haemophilus plasmid p1056 with the Haemophilus influenzae chromosome produced evidence indicating site-specific recombination with...

Transferable Antibiotic Resistance Elements in Haemophilus influenzae Share a Common Evolutionary Origin with a Diverse Family of Syntenic Genomic Islands

Mohd-Zain, Zaini, Turner, Sarah L., Cerdeño-Tárraga, Ana M., Lilley, Andrew K., Inzana, Thomas J., Duncan, A. Jane, ...

Transferable antibiotic resistance in Haemophilus influenzae was first detected in the early 1970s. After this, resistance spread rapidly worldwide and was shown to be transferred by a large 40- to...

Comparative analysis of genomic islands of Haemophilus species shows that they are co-evolving as semi-autonomous genomes within the host genome.
