A segment of Escherichia coli DNA that contained a discontinuity of homology with Salmonella typhimurium DNA was isolated. The segment, 1,430 base pairs long, was derived from one end of the lac "loop," a region of about 12 kilobase pairs of E. coli DNA, including the lac operon which has no detectable homology with S. typhimurium DNA (K. Lampel and M. Riley, Mol. Gen. Genet. 186:82-86, 1982). The nucleotide sequence of the 1,430-base-pair segment of DNA was determined. The location of the junction of discontinuity of homology within the segment was established by hybridization experiments. Nucleotide sequences at or near the junction were determined to be similar to sequences that are involved in site-specific inversion in S. typhimurium, E. coli, phage P1, and phage Mu. Similar sequences are also present within the terminal inverted repeat sequences of transposon Tn5 and at the V-D-J joining sequences of eucaryotic immunoglobulin genes. Therefore, the lac operon, together with flanking DNA, may have been inserted into the E. coli chromosome at one time via a site-specific recombination event. Rearrangement events of this kind undoubtedly have played a significant role in the evolutionary divergence of chromosomal DNAs.
