Rates of transposition in Escherichia coli.

Biology letters - 1 Jan 2013

Sousa Ana, Bourgard Catarina, Wahl Lindi M, Gordo Isabel

Abstract excerpt

The evolutionary role of transposable elements (TEs) is still highly controversial. Two key parameters, the transposition rate (u and w, for replicative and non-replicative transposition) and the excision rate (e) are fundamental to understanding their evolution and maintenance in populations. We have estimated u, w and e for six families of TEs (including eight members: IS1, IS2, IS3, IS4, IS5, IS30, IS150 and...
