摘要: Evolution of pathogenic bacteria results from the acquisition mobile genetic elements. Furthermore, loss information by deletion and nonsense mutations also contribute to diversification. Mobile or mobilizable elements encoding bacterial protein toxins promote horizontal gene transfer toxin determinants. The organization carrying genes mirrors importance recombination, acquisition- function events for continuous evolution generation new variants.
