A1 Grinsted, J.YR 1990 T1 Temperature sensitivity of transposition of class II transposons JF Microbiology, VO 136 IS 1 SP 65 OP 67 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/00221287-136-1-65 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1465-2080, AB It has been reported that transposition of Tn3 is temperature-sensitive. The effect of temperature on the transposition of other class II bacterial transposable elements is reported here: Tn21, Tn501, Tn1721, Tn2501 and Tn3926 all also display temperature-sensitivity of transposition. The temperature at which the highest transposition frequency was observed varied between room temperature and 30°C., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/00221287-136-1-65
