A sequence of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in a cell that changes its position. The act of a transposable factor changing position, such as from one location on a chromosome to another, or from a plasmid to a chromosome, is called transposable.
Because the transposable factor can not only bring new genetic material to the genome, but also enable or close certain genes like a switch in some cases, and often cause DNA rearrangements such as deletion, duplication, or inversion of the genome, it is closely related to biological evolution and may be related to ontogeny and cell differentiation. In addition, the transposposition of transposable factors with different drug resistance genes between bacterial plasmids will lead to the formation of multivalent drug-resistant plasmids, which will reduce the efficacy of multiple drugs and is a threat to human health, so it is necessary to study solutions. On the other hand, transposable factors with unique functions have become a useful tool in genetic research |
