Mechanistic insights from molecular microbiology into the production of immunological and neuronal diversity.

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria deal with an unpredictable, and often hostile, environment by being unpredictable themselves. This article will link some contributions made by variable DNA topology and nucleoid-associated proteins to the generation of stochasticity in bacterial gene expression and describe how the associated mechanistic insights can elucidate the means by which diversity in antibody and neuronal cell development might...
