Gene Evolution Accelerated by Head-On Collisions Between DNA-Code Reading Machineries

Research indicates that bacteria speed up their evolution by positioning specific genes along the route in DNA encoding. Certain genes are in prime collision paths for the moving molecular machineries that read the DNA code, as University of Washington scientists explain in this week's edition of iNature/i. The spatial-organization tactics their model organism, iBacillus subtilis/i, takes to evolve and adapt might be imitated in other related ...
