Transcription termination and antitermination are critical for the fitness and function of the integrative and conjugative element Tn916.
Premature expression of genes in mobile genetic elements can be detrimental to their bacterial hosts. Tn916, the founding member of a large family of integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs; aka conjugative transposons), confers tetracycline-resistance and is found in several Gram-positive bacter...
