Transposons are genetic fragments with the special quality of containing the genes that encode proteins to migrate these fragments from one genetic locus to another. In this talk, we will discuss the transposons' structure, the process of migration, insertion sequence structure, and the difference between simple and composite transposons.
* Understand the concept of bacterial genetic recombination via transposons.
* Recognize transposons as DNA fragments capable of moving genes between different loci.
* Identify the components of transposons, including direct repeats, inverted repeats, and the transposase gene.
* Describe the process by which transposase facilitates the movement of DNA material within the genome.
* Appreciate the diversity of transposons, including insertion sequences and composite transposons.
* Recognize the significance of transposons in bacterial evolution and genetic diversity.
