Integrating conjugative elements of the SXT/R391 family from fish-isolated Vibrios encode restriction–modification systems that confer resistance to bacteriophages

Abstract Integrating conjugative elements (ICEs) of the SXT/R391 family have been described in Vibrios, mainly Vibrio cholerae, and other bacteria as carriers of variable gene content conferring adaptive advantages upon their hosts, including antimicrobial resistance and motility regulation. However...
