A nucleotide sequence correction on the Enterococcus faecalis transposon Tn917 indicates
that what was formerly thought to be two open reading frames (ORF5 and ORF6) is actually …

Tn554 is a high‐frequency, site‐specific, transposable element having integrative properties
resembling those of lysogenic bacteriophages. Nucleotide sequence analysis indicates that …

A 3.5-kb region of plasmid pTF-FC2, which contains a transposon-like element designated
Tn5467, has been sequenced, and its biological activity has been investigated. The …

The bacterial insertion sequence (IS) IS26 mobilizes and disseminates antibiotic resistance
genes. It differs from bacterial IS that have been studied to date as it exclusively forms …

The transposase (Tnp) of the bacterial transposon Tn5 acts 50-to 100-fold more efficiently on
elements located cis to the site of its synthesis compared with those located in trans. In an …

Suicide plasmid pJB4JI, containing transposon Tn5 and phage Mu, was introduced from
Escherichia coli 1830 into Acinetobacter sp. strain HO1-N and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus …

We show in this work that disruption of the hfq gene in Escherichia coli causes a large
increase in IS10 transposition when IS10 is present on a multi‐copy plasmid. Hfq is an RNA …

We performed a genetic and sequencing analysis of insertions of the transposon Tn9 into
the lac operon of E. coli. Genetic mapping of 70 insertions into lacl and Z shows that starting …

The amino-terminal sequence of the Tn3 transposase protein was determined to be Pro-Val-
Asp-Phe-Leu-Thr-Thr-Glu-Gln-Val-Glu-Ser.... This was determined both from an active …

Bacterial transposon Tn3 has a 38-bp terminal inverted repeat (IR) sequence. The IR
sequence has been divided into two domains, A and B, of which domain B is bound by …
