Bacterial insertion sequences: their genomic impact and diversity.

FEMS microbiology reviews - 1 Sept 2014

Siguier Patricia, Gourbeyre Edith, Chandler Mick

Abstract excerpt

Insertion sequences (ISs), arguably the smallest and most numerous autonomous transposable elements (TEs), are important players in shaping their host genomes. This review focuses on prokaryotic ISs. We discuss IS distribution and impact on genome evolution. We also examine their effects on gene expression, especially their role in activating neighbouring genes, a phenomenon of particular importance in the recent...
