Abstract

Cover illustration: This schematic image indicates the presence of transposons in bacteria. Some strains of Escherichia coli contain several plasmids that are carrier of Tn10. Tn10 is carrier of resistance genes to tetracycline. The expression of the tetA gene in the Tn10 transposon causes E. coli resistance to tetracycline. The tetA, tetC, and tetD genes act as tetracycline efflux genes and tetR is the repressor of the tetracycline resistance genes.
