细菌逆转录酶（RT）负责产生称为多拷贝单链DNA（msDNA）的RNA-DNA复合物。合成msDNA所需的遗传元件称为retron。在这里，我们描述了两个新的retrons命名为retron-Vc 81和retron-Vc 137霍乱弧菌。有趣的是，在染色体上的相同位置，retron-Vc 81和retron-Vc 137被retron-Vc 95取代。
Bacterial reverse transcriptase (RT) is responsible for the production of an RNA-DNA complex called multicopy single-stranded DNA (msDNA). The genetic element required for the sysnthesis of msDNA is named a retron. Here, we characterize two novel retrons named retron-Vc81 and retron-Vc137 in Vibrio cholerae. Interestingly, retron-Vc81 and retron-Vc137 are replaced by retron-Vc95 at the same location on the chromosome.
