“The excision of a transposon from a native location followed by its integration at another location in a host genome is referred to as a non-replicative mechanism of transposition.” The […]

During each round of replicative transposition, a transposon is duplicated (replicated) and inserted in a new position. Both DNA and retrotransposons follow the replicative mechanism of transposition.Tn3, phage Mu are
