Diversity-generating Retroelements in Phage and Bacterial Genomes.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Dec 2014

Guo Huatao, Arambula Diego, Ghosh Partho, Miller Jeff F

Abstract excerpt

Diversity-generating retroelements (DGRs) are DNA diversification machines found in diverse bacterial and bacteriophage genomes that accelerate the evolution of ligand-receptor interactions. Diversification results from a unidirectional transfer of sequence information from an invariant template repeat (TR) to a variable repeat (VR) located in a protein-encoding gene. Information transfer is coupled to...
