The latent cis-regulatory potential of mobile DNA in Escherichia coli

Abstract Transposable elements can alter gene regulation in their host genome, either when they integrate into a genome, or when they accrue mutations after integration. However, the extent to which transposons can alter gene expression, as well as the necessary mutational steps, are not well charac...
