Excessive Promoters as Silencers of Genes Horizontally Acquired by Escherichia coli

Horizontally acquired genes are usually transcriptionally inactive, although most of them are associated with genomic loci enriched with promoter-like sequences forming “promoter islands.” We hypothesized that lateral DNA transfer induces local mutagenesis, accumulating AT base pairs and creating pr...
