Tn <i>3</i> -derived inverted-repeat miniature elements (TIMEs) that mobilize antibiotic resistance genes
2025-11-06
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are nonautonomous mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that can be mobilized by transposases provided by the relevant autonomous MGEs. MITEs originating from Tn 3 -family transposons were previously termed Tn 3 -derived inverted-repeat miniature elements (TIMEs). Composite transposon-like structures bounded by two copies of TIME, called TIME-CO...
