Promoter capture drives the emergence of proto-genes in Escherichia coli

M. H. uz-Zaman, S. D'Alton, J. E. Barrick, H. Ochman

The paper identifies proto-genes in E. coli by analyzing the LTEE dataset, showing non-genic sequences evolve transcription and translation, often due to promoter formation and chromosomal events.
