Transcription termination and antitermination are critical for the fitness and function of the integrative and conjugative element Tn <i>916</i>

2024-09-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Premature expression of genes in mobile genetic elements can be detrimental to their bacterial hosts. Tn 916 , the founding member of a large family of integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs; aka conjugative transposons), confers tetracycline-resistance and is found in several Gram-positive bacterial species. We identified a transcription terminator near one end of Tn 916 that functions as...
