Changes in transcriptional orientation are associated with increases in evolutionary rates of enterobacterial genes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Changes in transcriptional orientation (“CTOs”) occur frequently in prokaryotic genomes. Such changes usually result from genomic inversions, which may cause a conflict between the directions of replication and transcription and an i...
