Firmicutes-enriched IS1447 represents a group of IS3-family insertion sequences exhibiting unique + 1 transcriptional slippage

Abstract: BackgroundBacterial insertion sequences (ISs) are ubiquitous mobile genetic elements that play important roles in genome plasticity, cell adaptability, and function evolution. ISs of various families and subgroups contain significantly diverse molecular features and functional mechanisms that are not fully understood.ResultsIS1447 is a member of the widespread IS3 family and was previously detected to have transposing activity in a typical thermophilic and cellulolytic microorganism Clostridium thermocellum.

“…coli native polymerase would perform transcriptional slippage, which implies that the polymerase transcribed longer or shorter RNA sequences than the target template, either during the initiation or elongation process, especially for which containing the homopolymeric sequences ( i.e. , T or A) . The PDT7m with insertion of TTTT conferred a T-rich homopolymer region to the transcriptional slippage, occurring to escape the early translational stop.…”

“…A previous report has proven that E. coli native polymerase would perform transcriptional slippage, which implies that the polymerase transcribed longer or shorter RNA sequences than the target template, either during the initiation or elongation process, especially for which containing the homopolymeric sequences (i.e., T or A). 14 The PDT7m with insertion of TTTT conferred a T-rich homopolymer region to the transcriptional slippage, occurring to escape the early translational stop. Moreover, no other mutations existed in the plasmid; thus, a trace amount of T7RNAP was sufficient to support the T7 orthogonality, leading to an increase in the fluorescence intensity.…”

“…The Tn5 transposon is the transposon of the IS4 family [ 196 ]. The IS4 family is divided into several subgroups, in which the subgroup of IS50 contains 19 transposon elements [ 197 ]. Tn5 transposase recognizes the mosaic end (ME) sequence of 19 bp on both sides of the DNA segment.…”
