CRISPR-Cas-Mediated Phage Resistance Enhances Horizontal Gene Transfer by Transduction

open access: yesmBio, 2018
A powerful contributor to prokaryotic evolution is horizontal gene transfer (HGT) through transformation, conjugation, and transduction, which can be advantageous, neutral, or detrimental to fitness.

Identification of a small molecule for enhancing lentiviral transduction of T cells

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2023
Genetic modification of cells using viral vectors has shown huge therapeutic benefit in multiple diseases. However, inefficient transduction contributes to the high cost of these therapies.

Protein transduction: an alternative to genetic intervention? [PDF]

open access: yesGene Therapy, 2001
Protein transduction, an emerging technology with potential applications in gene therapy, can best be described as the internalisation of proteins into the cell, from the external environment. This process relies on the inherent property of a small number of proteins and peptides of being able to penetrate the cell membrane. The transducing property of

Detecting rare gene transfer events in bacterial populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) enables bacteria to access, share, and recombine genetic variation, resulting in genetic diversity that cannot be obtained through mutational processes alone.

Is the bacterial chromosome a mobile genetic element?

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
An outcome of phage infection, lateral transduction, has been shown to mobilize chromosomal genes between bacterial cells at rates that exceed those of mobile genetic elements such as plasmids.

Phage ϕC2 Mediates Transduction of Tn6215, Encoding Erythromycin Resistance, between Clostridium difficile Strains

open access: yesmBio, 2013
In this work, we show that Clostridium difficile phage ϕC2 transduces erm(B), which confers erythromycin resistance, from a donor to a recipient strain at a frequency of 10−6 per PFU. The transductants were lysogenic for ϕC2 and contained the erm(B) gene

Crosstalk between Photoreceptor and Sugar Signaling Modulates Floral Signal Transduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Over the past decade, integrated genetic, cellular, proteomic and genomic approaches have begun to unravel the surprisingly crosstalk between photoreceptors and sugar signaling in regulation of floral signal transduction.

lncRNA OR3A4 Promotes the Proliferation and Metastasis of Ovarian Cancer Through KLF6 Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Aim: Ovarian cancer is a collaborative malignant tumor of the female reproductive system in clinical research. Some clinical studies have shown that OR3A4, which is a cancer-causing lncRNA, plays a major role in promoting the occurrence and development ...

Transduction Analysis of the Genetic Determinants for Chloramphenicol Resistance in Staphylococci [PDF]

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Microbiology, 1970
ABSTRACTA genetic analysis of resistance to chloramphenicol (CM) in Staphylococcus aureus S1337 was carried out through transduction. About 3 to 18% of the transductants jointly acquired resistance to both tetracycline (TC) and CM, even when singly selected for either CM‐ or TC‐resistance.
