However, even those comparative studies that focus on a group of closely related organisms are limited by the rather scarce knowledge on regulatory interactions outside a few model organisms, such as <jats:italic>E. coli<\/jats:italic> among the prokaryotes.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>In this paper we used the information annotated in Tractor_DB (a database of regulatory networks in gamma-proteobacteria) to calculate a normalized Site Orthology Score (SOS) that quantifies the conservation of a regulatory link across thirty genomes of this subclass. Then we used this SOS to assess how regulatory connections have evolved in this group, and how the variation of basic regulatory connection is reflected on the structure of the chromosome. We found that individual regulatory interactions shift between different organisms, a process that may be described as rewiring the network. At this evolutionary scale (the gamma-proteobacteria subclass) this rewiring process may be an important source of variation of regulatory incoming interactions for individual networks. We also noticed that the regulatory links that form feed forward motifs are conserved in a better correlated manner than triads of random regulatory interactions or pairs of co-regulated genes. Furthermore, the rewiring process that takes place at the most basic level of the regulatory network may be linked to rearrangements of genetic material within bacterial chromosomes, which change the structure of Transcription Units and therefore the regulatory connections between Transcription Factors and structural genes.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The rearrangements that occur in bacterial chromosomes-mostly inversion or horizontal gene transfer events \u2013 are important sources of variation of gene regulation at this evolutionary scale.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2164-9-128","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,8,3]],"date-time":"2009-08-03T17:06:17Z","timestamp":1249319177000},"update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Impact of Transcription Units rearrangement on the evolution of the regulatory network of gamma-proteobacteria"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Abel D","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez P\u00e9rez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Evelyn","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vladimir","family":"Espinosa Angarica","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana Tereza R","family":"Vasconcelos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julio","family":"Collado-Vides","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"1322_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"283","DOI":"10.1016\/j.sbi.2004.05.004","volume":"14","author":"M Babu","year":"2004","unstructured":"Babu M, Luscombe N, Aravind L, Gerstein M, Teichman S: Structure and evolution of transcriptional regulatory networks.
