Eukaryotic transposable elements as "cargo carriers": the forging of metal resistance in the fungus Paecilomyces variotii

Andrew S. Urquhart, Nicholas F. Chong, Yongqing Yang, Alexander Idnurm

The paper identifies a mobile transposable element in the fungus Paecilomyces variotii that carries genes conferring metal resistance, suggesting a role for eukaryotic transposable elements in horizontal gene transfer of beneficial DNA.
