The impact of the neisserial DNA uptake sequences on genome evolution and stability

BACKGROUND: Efficient natural transformation in Neisseria requires the presence of short DNA uptake sequences (DUSs). Doubts remain whether DUSs propagate by pure selfish molecular drive or are selected for 'safe sex' among conspecifics. RESULTS: Six neisserial genomes were aligned to iden...
