Horizontal gene transfer Maddalen Arizti Lopez de Aberasturi Genomics Index Horizontal gene transfer Mechanisms Detection methods Importance Conclusion of HGT Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) Transfer of genes between organisms in a manner other than traditional reproduction Acquisition of foreign genes evolution of many organisms Organism Prokaryotes Eukaryotes Mechanisms of HGT Mechanisms of HGT Detection methods Phylogenetic methods Phylogeny independent methods Codon-based approaches BLAST PCR-based approaches Importance of HGT Adaptative advantages Bdelloid Rotifer Functional bacteria, plants and fungal genes Biochemistry improvements Evolution of eukaryotes Plantae plastids Red algae 5% of coding genes Glaucophytes 400 genes Green plant Implications for medicine and biotechnology Important role in pathogenesis Therapeutic targets Antibiotic resistance vaccines Conclusion Study of mechanism in eukaryotes Evolutionary potential in all the organism More frequent in eukaryotes than we though Importance for medicine and new therapies Thank you for listening!
