Genomic comparisons among Escherichia coli strains B, K-12, and O157:H7 using IS elements as molecular markers

BACKGROUND: Insertion Sequence (IS) elements are mobile genetic elements widely distributed among bacteria. Their activities cause mutations, promoting genetic diversity and sometimes adaptation. Previous studies have examined their copy number and distribution in Escherichia coli K-12 and natural i...
