Discovery of integrons in Archaea: platforms for cross-domain gene transfer

2022-02-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Horizontal gene transfer between different domains of life is increasingly being recognised as an important driver of evolution, with the potential to provide the recipient with new gene functionality and assist niche adaptation 1-3 . However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the integration of exogenous genes from foreign domains are mostly unknown. Integrons are a family of genetic elements...
