Identification of host genes that affect acquisition of an integrative and conjugative element in Bacillus subtilis.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Sept 2014

Johnson Christopher M, Grossman Alan D

Abstract excerpt

Conjugation, a major type of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria, involves transfer of DNA from a donor to a recipient using donor-encoded conjugation machinery. Using a high-throughput screen (Tn-seq), we identified genes in recipients that contribute to acquisition of the integrative and conjugative element ICEBs1 by Bacillus subtilis. We found that null mutations in some genes caused an increase, and others a...
