Abstract
En 中文
Over the past two decades, genome sequencing has uncovered the diversity and distribution of insertion sequences within prokaryotic genomes. However, the complexity of insertion sequence ecology and evolution hinders us from understanding their nature. Recent studies have employed experimental and computational models to study insertion sequences, emphasizing their role in shaping prokaryotic genome structures. Nonetheless, related areas remain with limited understanding, such as the speciation of insertion sequences. We believe that future studies should continue to develop tractable experimental and computational models to advance our understanding of IS ecology and evolution and their influence on the evolution of prokaryotic genomes.
