Active Transposition of Insertion Sequences by Oxidative Stress in Deinococcus geothermalis
Radiation-resistant bacterium Deinococcus geothermalis has a total of 73 insertion sequences (ISs) in genomes, and some of them are actively transposed to other loci with replicative mode due to oxidative stress of hydrogen peroxide treatment. Here, we detected two transposition events in wild-type...
