Deletion of integron-associated gene cassettes impact on the surface properties of Vibrio rotiferianus DAT722.
<h4>Background</h4>The integron is a genetic recombination system that catalyses the acquisition of genes on mobilisable elements called gene cassettes. In Vibrio species, multiple acquired gene cassettes form a cassette array that can comprise 1-3% of the bacterial genome. Since 75% of...
