Genome-wide analysis of chromosomal import patterns after natural transformation of Helicobacter pylori
Uptake and integration of exogenous DNA into the bacterial genome play an important role in the evolution of the pathogen Helicobacter pylori. Here, the authors describe a bimodal pattern of chromosomal integration and show how restriction-modification systems limit the import of heterologous DNA.
