However, since we selected reintegrations on the basis of new GFP expression patterns, this number is likely to be lower than the actual number of such transpositions (for example, closely-linked transpositions may retain the GFP expression pattern of the donor).
Such transpositions are sometimes made intentionally to produce comic effect.
Treigle and Hotter were great artists, but such transpositions (not to speak of cuts and rearrangements) play havoc with Handel's vocal lines, especially in duets.
A higher degree of supercoiling favors the "folded" conformation, where the two stems stack onto the linear part of the chromosome, a conformation that is required for such processes as recombination and transposition.
We conjectured that this 8 bp motif might be a site which is necessary for mGing transposition, such as transposase recognition [ 6].
Although inversions are thought to be the predominant mode of gene rearrangement in chloroplast genomes (Palmer 1991; Boudreau and Turmel 1995, 1996), we cannot exclude the possibility that other evolutionary mechanisms, such as transpositions or duplicative transpositions are responsible for some of the observed changes in gene order between the Stigeoclonium and Schizomeris cpDNAs.
For example, mistakes in recording data or entering it into the database, such as transposition of numbers, are random errors if they are unrelated to the particular variable of interest and other characteristics of that particular case.
Moreover, genomes are continuously challenged by mutagenic processes, such as transposition and imperfect replication.
LGT is caused by processes such as transposition, transduction, and conjugation.
