Kinetics of DNA uptake during transformation provide evidence for a translocation ratchet mechanism

Horizontal gene transfer can speed up adaptive evolution and support chromosomal DNA repair. A particularly widespread mechanism of gene transfer is transformation. The initial step to transformation, namely the uptake of DNA from the environment, is supported by the type IV pilus system in most spe...
