Natural Genetic Transformation Generates a Population of Merodiploids in Streptococcus pneumoniae
Partial duplication of genetic material is prevalent in eukaryotes and provides potential for evolution of new traits. Prokaryotes, which are generally haploid in nature, can evolve new genes by partial chromosome duplication, known as merodiploidy. Little is known about merodiploid formation during genetic exchange processes, although merodiploids have been serendipitously observed in early st...
متن کاملNatural merodiploidy of the lux-rib operon of Photobacterium leiognathi from coastal waters of Honshu, Japan.
Sequence analysis of the bacterial luminescence (lux) genes has proven effective in helping resolve evolutionary relationships among luminous bacteria. Phylogenetic analysis using lux genes, however, is based on the assumptions that the lux genes are present as single copies on the bacterial chromosome and are vertically inherited. We report here that certain strains of Photobacterium leiognath...
متن کاملSynthetic studies of cephalandole alkaloids and the revised structure of cephalandole A.
A synthesis of the originally proposed 2-(1 H-indol-3-yl)-4 H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one structure of the alkaloid cephalandole A (1) led to a structural revision, and the isolated natural product has now been identified as the previously known compound 3-(1 H-indol-3-yl)-2 H-1,4-benzoxazin-2-one (7). The structural assignment was corroborated by detailed NMR studies. A short synthesis of the related...

One can prove the following propositions: (1) For every non zero natural number n holds n − 1 is a natural number and 1 ≤ n. (2) For every odd natural number n holds n − 1 is a natural number and 1 ≤ n. (3) For all odd integers n, m such that n < m holds n ≤ m − 2. (4) For all odd integers n, m such that m < n holds m + 2 ≤ n. (5) For every odd natural number n such that 1 6= n there exists an ...
