Giant Starship Elements Mobilize Accessory Genes in Fungal Genomes
E Gluck-Thaler, T Ralston, Z Konkel… - Molecular biology …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Accessory genes are variably present among members of a species and are a reservoir of
adaptive functions. In bacteria, differences in gene distributions among individuals largely …

The Enterprise, a massive transposon carrying Spok meiotic drive genes
The genomes of eukaryotes are full of parasitic sequences known as transposable elements
(TEs). Here, we report the discovery of a putative giant tyrosine-recombinase-mobilized DNA …

That's no moon, it's a Starship: Giant transposons driving fungal horizontal gene transfer
AH Bucknell, MC McDonald - Molecular Microbiology, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
To date, most reports of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in fungi rely on genome sequence
data and are therefore an indirect measure of HGT after the event has occurred. However, a …
