The transposon Tn9 generates a 9 bp repeated sequence during integration
Abstract
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 from the same point on the chromosome, Tn9 goes to at least 50 different points in these two genes. Although there are preferred regions for insertion, these consist of multiple integration points within a small area, as demonstrated by pairwise crosses and restriction mapping. Sequence analysis of three Tn9 insertions reveals that Tn9 integration is associated with a direct repeat of 9 base pairs (bp) of host sequence. We show that these extra 9 nucleotide pairs are generated upon insertion and not brought in with the element.

“In some eubacteria and archaea, such as Acinetobacter baumannii, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecium, Lactococcus lactis, and Mycobacterium smegmatis, transposon-mediated LGT usually generates a pair of DRs varying from several to a dozen base pairs flanking the foreign gene after its integration into the host genome.33–36”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
