Contents:
Introduction
Lateral gene transfer
The integron/gene cassette system
Arrangement of integron/gene cassette system
The recombination system
Three components of an integron
Gene cassettes
Circular form of genes cassettes
Linear form of a gene cassette
Gene cassette capture
Recombination occures in two directions
What integrons can do
Cassette associated genes
Integrons and multi drug resistance
Example: resistance genes in class 1 integrons
Examples of class 1 integron arrays
Cassettes can appear in different contexts
