6、 the loci on a phage and the bacterial chromosome at which Site-specific recombination occurs When the att site is deleted from the E. coli chromosome, phage can integrate elsewhere, although the efficiency is 0.1% of the frequency of integration at att. This inefficient integration occurs at second

It is called the core sequence; and the recombination event occurs within it.第三节 转座因子与转座重组Transposable elements and transpositional recombination Transposable elements ( transposon): A DNA sequence capable of moving ( transposing) from

8、one location to another in a genome. 1. Insertion sequences ( IS) ( 插入序列）插入序列） Insertion sequences ( IS) are the simplest transposons An IS element ends in short inverted terminal repeats; usually the two copies of the repeat are closely related rather than identical. IS elements code for the transp

9、osase The IS elements are normal constituents of bacterial chromosomes and plasmids. When an IS element transposes, a sequence of host DNA at the site of insertion is duplicated. The frequency of transposition The frequency varies among different elements. The overall rate of transposition is 10-3 1

10、0-4 per element per generation. Insertions in individual targets occur at a level comparable with the spontaneous mutation rate, usually 10-5 10-7 per generation. Precise excision of the IS element is usually infrequent, with a range of rates of 10-6 to 10-10 per generation, 103 times less frequent

11、than insertion. 2. Bacterial transposons (Tn) （细菌转座子）（细菌转座子） Tn carry drug resistance (or other) gene in addition to the functions concerned with transposition. One class of larger transposons are called composite elements, because a central region carrying the drug marker(s) is flanked by IS elemen

12、ts In some cases, IS modules are identical, such as Tn9 (direct repeats of IS1) or Tn903 (inverted repeats of IS903). In other cases, the modules are closely related, but not identical. So we can distinguish the L and R modules in Tn10 or in Tn5. A functional IS module can transpose either itself or

13、 the entire transposon. When the two IS modules are identical, either module can sponsor the transposition. When the modules are different, transposition can depend on one of the modules3.

16、viruses are single-stranded RNA animal viruses that employ a double-stranded DNA intermediate for replication. The viral DNA integrates into the host genome at randomly selected sites. Sometimes (probably rather rarely), the integrated retrovirus can convert a host cell into a tumorigenic state thro

Retroposon Transposable elements that utilize reverse transcriptase to transpose through an RNA intermediate are termed retrotransposons. （逆转录转座子是指通过RNA为中介,反转录成DNA后进行转座的转座因子。逆转座作用出现在真核生物 ） Retroposons in eukaryotes are generally divided into two classes.
