Research Abstract |
This project aimed to study the mobile DNA element, integrons, and associated gene cassettes, for the first time, in extreme marine environments. Novel and diverse integron structures and environment- adaptive gene cassettes have been recovered. This project had three main achievements. First, it introduced new methodology for recovery of integrons from environmental metagenomes. Second, it extended our understanding to the contribution of integrons in the adaptation of bacteria to extreme marine conditions. Third, it provided us with several novel adaptive and metabolic genes that have several biotechnological applications.
