Rapid functional activation of a horizontally transferred eukaryotic gene in a bacterial genome in the absence of selection

Horizontal gene transfer has occurred between organisms of all domains of life and contributed substantially to genome evolution in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Phylogenetic evidence suggests that eukaryotic genes horizontally transferred to bacteria provided useful new gene functions that impro...
