    Abstract Most life forms harbor multiple, diverse mobile genetic elements (MGE) that widely differ in their rates and mechanisms of mobility. Recent findings on two classes of MGE in prokaryotes revealed a novel mechanism, RNA-guided transposition, where a transposon-encoded guide RNA directs the transposase to a unique site in the host genome. Tn7-like transposons, on multiple occasions, recruited CRISPR systems that lost the capacity to cleave target DNA and instead mediate RNA-guided transposition via CRISPR RNA. Conversely, the abundant transposon-associated, RNA-guided nucleases IscB and TnpB that appear to promote proliferation of IS

    Abstract The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) recently accepted viriforms as a new polyphyletic category of classifiable virus-derived genetic elements, juxtaposed to the polyphyletic virus, viroid, and satellite nucleic acid categories. Viriforms are endogenized former viruses that have been exapted by their cellular hosts to fulfill functions important for the host's life cycle. While morphologically resembling virions, particles made by viriforms do not package the viriform genomes but instead transport host genetic material. Known viriforms are highly diverse: members of family

    Abstract Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a fundamental process in the evolution of prokaryotes, making major contributions to diversification and adaptation. Typically, HGT is facilitated by mobile genetic elements (MGEs), such as conjugative plasmids and phages that generally impose fitness costs on their hosts. However, a substantial fraction of bacterial genes is involved in defense mechanisms that limit the propagation of MGEs, raising the possibility that they can actively restrict HGT. Here we examine whether defense systems curb HGT by exploring the connections between HGT rate and the presence of 73 defense systems in 12 bacterial species. We found that only 6 defense systems, 3 of which are different CRISPR-Cas subtypes, are associated with the reduced gene gain rate on the scale of species evolution. The hosts of such defense systems tend to have a smaller pangenome size and harbor fewer phage-related genes compared to genomes lacking these systems, suggesting that these defense mechanisms inhibit HGT by limiting the integration of prophages. We hypothesize that restriction of HGT by defense systems is species-specific and depends on various ecological and genetic factors, including the burden of MGEs and fitness effect of HGT in bacterial populations.
