Interpolated variable order motifs for identification of horizontally acquired DNA: revisiting the Salmonella pathogenicity islands
2006
Computer applications in the biosciences : CABIOS
order motif methods predicting not only the already characterized Salmonella Pathogenicity Islands (SPI-1 to SPI-10) but also three novel SPIs (SPI-15, SPI-16, SPI-17) and other HGT events. ...
Results: We introduce a novel computational method, Interpolated Variable Order Motifs (IVOMs), which exploits compositional biases using variable order motif distributions and captures more reliably the ...

Resolving the structural features of genomic islands: A machine learning approach
2008
Genome Research
Large inserts of horizontally acquired DNA that contain functionally related genes with limited phylogenetic distribution are often referred to as genomic islands (GIs), and structural definitions of these ...
Although a large number of mobile elements fall well within the GI definition, there are several concerns about the structural consensus for GIs: The current GI definition was put forward 10 yr ago when ...

Genomic Islands and the Evolution of Livestock-Associated Staphylococcus aureus genomes
2020
Bioscience Reports
Genomic Islands (GIs) are commonly believed to be relics of horizontal transfer and associated with specific metabolic capacities, including virulence of the strain. ...
Methods: Genomic Islands were predicted with two methods namely, Ensemble algorithm for Genomic Island Detection (EGID) tool, and Seq word Sniffer script. ...

The genome sequence of the psychrophilic archaeon, Methanococcoides burtonii: the role of genome evolution in cold adaptation
2009
The ISME Journal
The genome of M. burtonii was sequenced at the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) using a combination of 3 kb, 8 kb and 40 kb DNA libraries. ...
Our study reveals a capacity for this model psychrophile to evolve through genome plasticity (including nucleotide skew, horizontal gene transfer and transposase activity) that enables adaptation to the ...
