NEW CODING SEQUENCES FORMATION BY VIRUSES WITH THE HELP OF HORIZONTAL TRANSFER AND GENE DUPLICATION [PDF]
Annals of Mechnikov's Institute, 2019 Besides the gene co-optation discusses in the previous article, viruses are able to form the cellular genome through horizontal gene transfer and by the copy number increase of the cellular genes with the help of amplification or retrocopies production ...

The Routes of Emergence of Life from LUCA during the RNA and Viral World: A Conspectus
Life, 2015 How did life emerge on Earth? The aim of the Network of Researchers on Horizontal Gene Transfer and the Last Universal Cellular Ancestor (NoR HGT & LUCA) is to understand how the genetics of LUCAs were reorganised prior to the advent of the three ...

Shaping the Landscape of Eukaryotic Gene Expression: Horizontal Gene Transfer
Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2021 Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in prokaryotes refers to the movement of genes and genetic information between two organisms. This usually results in the spread of antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria. Vertical gene transfer(VGT), on the other hand,

Multiple pathways of plasmid DNA transfer in Helicobacter pylori [PDF]
, 2012 Many Helicobacter pylori (Hp) strains carry cryptic plasmids of different size and gene content, the function of which is not well understood. A subgroup of these plasmids (e.g.
