[Bacterial conjugative transposons].
Data on conjugative transposons of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria are reviewed. Their organization and the mechanism of their transposition and mobilization of other replicons are considered. The transposition regulation by tetracycline and the role of conjugative transposons in bacterial gene transfer are briefly discussed.
