Abstract excerpt
Bacterial evolution is considered in the light of molecular discoveries about genome organization, biochemical mechanisms of genetic change, and cellular control networks. Prokaryotic genetic determinants are organized as modular composites of coding sequences and protein-factor binding sites joined together during evolution. Studies of genetic change have revealed the existence of biochemical functions capable...
