LATERAL GENE TRANSFER IN THE CYANOBACTERIA: CHLOROPHYLLS, PROTEINS, AND SCRAPS OF RIBOSOMAL RNA
Abstract
Lateral gene transfer (LGT) refers to the acquisition of a gene by some mechanism other than vertical inheritance from an ancestor (Eisen 2002, Gogarten et al. 2002). One of the best-known examples is the transfer of antibiotic resistance between bacterial strains, which continues to provide a signficant challenge to modern medicine. The large number of prokaryotic genome sequences now available show many examples of LGT, not only between...
