Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004 Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is a serious disease of tobacco in North and South Carolina. In contrast, the disease rarely occurs on tobacco in Georgia and Florida, although bacterial wilt is a common problem on tomato.

Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 New mutations leading to structural variation (SV) in genomes — in the form of mobile element insertions, large deletions, gene duplications, and other chromosomal rearrangements — can play a key role in microbial evolution.

Insertion sequence distribution bias in Archaea [PDF]
Mobile Genetic Elements, 2014 Insertion sequences (IS) are common transposable elements in Archaea. Intergenic IS elements are usually less harmful than intragenic ISs, simply because they are less likely to disrupt host gene function. However, because regulatory sequences are intergenic and upstream of genes, we hypothesized that not all intergenic regions are selectively ...

A 19-nucleotide insertion in the leader sequence of avian leukosis virus subgroup J contributes to its replication in vitro but is not related to its pathogenicity in vivo. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Subgroup J avian leukosis virus (ALV-J) was first isolated from meat-type chickens that had developed myeloid leukosis and since 2008, ALV-J infections in chickens have become widespread in China.

A decade of advances in transposon-insertion sequencing [PDF]
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2020 It has been 10 years since the introduction of modern transposon-insertion sequencing (TIS) methods, which combine genome-wide transposon mutagenesis with high-throughput sequencing to estimate the fitness contribution or essentiality of each genetic component in a bacterial genome.

Role of the N-terminal seven residues of surfactant protein B (SP-B). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Breathing is enabled by lung surfactant, a mixture of proteins and lipids that forms a surface-active layer and reduces surface tension at the air-water interface in lungs. Surfactant protein B (SP-B) is an essential component of lung surfactant. In this

Transposition of a bacterial insertion sequence in chloroplasts [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 2009 SummaryBacterial transposable elements (IS elements, transposons) represent an important determinant of genome structure and dynamics, and are a major force driving genome evolution. Here, we have tested whether bacterial insertion sequences (IS elements) can transpose in a prokaryotic compartment of the plant cell, the plastid (chloroplast).

Insertion Sequence IS 900 Revisited [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2006 ABSTRACT Many studies investigating Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in Crohn's disease have used molecular detection of IS 900 in clinical samples, but some have described polymorphisms in IS 900 as variants of this ...
