DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another—are key to bacterial evolution and the development of ...

Researchers show that transposons can target and insert themselves at the ends of linear chromosomes, called telomeres, within their bacterial host. In Streptomyces -- historically one of the most ...

Researchers have uncovered mechanisms by which mobile genetic elements integrate into the chromosomes of bacteria with linear genomes.

Transposons have been found clustered at the chromosome ends in eukaryotic cells, but this is the first time it's been ...

Transposons, or "jumping genes" - DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another - are key to bacterial ...

Scientists at Cornell University have uncovered a new mechanism that bacterial transposons —often called “jumping genes” —use ...

Researchers enhance sarcopenia treatment by analyzing gut bacteria and genetics Personalized strategies are essential for ...
