Biology 1001A Chapter Notes - Chapter 9.4: Tautomer, Archaea, Transposable Element
Document Summary
An example of genetic recombination is mobile elements. All organisms appear to contain particular segments of dna that can move from one place to another. Mobile elements: particular segments of dna that can move from one place to another; genome of a given cell cell transposition recombination on the type of element: new location. Their mechanism of movement (involving nonhomologous recombination) is called. Mobile elements are also known as the more specific term transposable elements (tes) Transposition usually occurs @ a low & constant frequency in either of 2 ways, depending they cut and paste dna backbones using a type of recombination the does not require homology. 9. 4a insertion sequence elements and transposons are the two major types of prokaryotic mobile. Aka jumping genes, these elements normally move from place to place within the. A sequence of dna that can move from one place to another within the genome of a. Mechanism of movement of transposable elements involving nonhomologous.
