Lateral gene transfer in eukaryotes
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2005 Lateral gene transfer -- the transfer of genetic material between species -- has been acknowledged as a major mechanism in prokaryotic genome evolution for some time.

On surrogate methods for detecting lateral gene transfer. [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2001 Surrogate methods for detecting lateral gene transfer are those that do not require inference of phylogenetic trees. Herein I apply four such methods to identify open reading frames (ORFs) in the genome of Escherichia coli K12 that may have arisen by ...

Rates of Lateral Gene Transfer in Prokaryotes: High but Why? [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2015 Lateral gene transfer is of fundamental importance to the evolution of prokaryote genomes and has important practical consequences, as evidenced by the rapid dissemination of antibiotic resistance and virulence determinants.

Reconciling the many faces of lateral gene transfer
Trends in Microbiology, 2002 The various methods for detecting potential lateral gene transfer events typically uncover different sets of genes. Because the procedures used to recognize transferred genes ask different types of questions, the sets of genes identified by each ...

Lateral gene transfer in Salmonella
Microbes and Infection, 2003Comparative genomics and microarrays reveal that the genomes of different Salmonella enterica serovars are distinguished from each other by the presence or absence of hundreds of genes. The distribution of these variable genome regions is often not clonal.

Detecting Laterally Transferred Genes
2012Methods for identifying alien genes in genomes fall into two general classes. Phylogenetic methods examine the distribution of a gene's homologues among genomes to find those with relationships not consistent with vertical inheritance. These approaches include identifying orphan genes which lack homologues in closely related genomes and genes with ...

Detection of lateral gene transfer among microbial genomes
Current Opinion in Genetics and Development, 2001 An increasingly comprehensive assessment is being developed of the extent and potential significance of lateral gene transfer among microbial genomes. Genomic sequences can be identified as being of putatively lateral origin by their unexpected phyletic ...

Lateral and oblique gene transfer
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2001Sequence information from complete genomes, and from multiple loci of strains within species, is transforming the way that we investigate the evolution of bacteria. Such large-scale assessments of bacterial genomes have provided evidence of extensive gene transfer and exchange.

Lateral Transfer of the lux Gene Cluster
Journal of Biochemistry, 2006The lux operon is an uncommon gene cluster. To find the pathway through which the operon has been transferred, we sequenced the operon and both flanking regions in four typical luminous species. In Vibrio cholerae NCIMB 41, a five-gene cluster, most genes of which were highly similar to orthologues present in Gram-positive bacteria, along with the lux ...
