Opportunity and Means: Horizontal Gene Transfer from the Human Host to a Bacterial Pathogen
ABSTRACT The acquisition and incorporation of genetic material between nonmating species, or horizontal gene transfer (HGT), has been frequently described for phylogenetically related organisms, but far less evidence exists for HGT between highly divergent organisms. Here we report the identificatio...
