Bacterial Transposon Structure Can Be Thought of As

Question

Bacterial transposon structure can be thought of as:
A)IS sequences flanked by inverted drug-resistance genes.
B)drug-resistance gene(s)flanked by IS elements.
C)drug-resistance gene(s)flanked by a pair of mu ($\mu$)phage.
D)a mu ($\mu$)phage flanked by two IS elements.
E)resistance gene(s)flanked by inverted resistance transfer factors (RTFs).

Accepted Answer

Bacterial transposon structure typically consists of drug-resistance gene(s) flanked by IS elements, which are short DNA sequences that can move from one location to another within the genome. This arrangement allows for the rapid spread of antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria.
