水平转移是指遗传物质在基因组之间通过父母到后代遗传以外的方式传递。虽然基因转移被认为是原核生物进化的关键,但在多细胞真核生物中很少有水平基因转移的报道;相反,大多数情况下涉及转座因子。现在有200多个案例记录,可以评估水平转移对转座因子及其宿主基因组进化的重要性。我们审查检测水平转移的标准,并检查最近的例子的现象,揭示其机制的基础,包括宿主-寄生虫相互作用的作用。我们认为,转座因子的水平转移在真核生物基因组中的引入已经成为推动基因组变异和生物创新的主要力量。
Horizontal transfer is the passage of genetic material between genomes by means other than parent-to-offspring inheritance. Although the transfer of genes is thought to be crucial in prokaryotic evolution, few instances of horizontal gene transfer have been reported in multicellular eukaryotes; instead, most cases involve transposable elements. With over 200 cases now documented, it is possible to assess the importance of horizontal transfer for the evolution of transposable elements and their host genomes. We review criteria for detecting horizontal transfers and examine recent examples of the phenomenon, shedding light on its mechanistic underpinnings, including the role of host-parasite interactions. We argue that the introduction of transposable elements by horizontal transfer in eukaryotic genomes has been a major force propelling genomic variation and biological innovation.
