Curupira-1 and Curupira-2, two novel Mutator-like DNA transposons from the genomes of human parasites Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2011)
Transposons of the Mutator superfamily have been widely described in plants, but only recently have metazoan organisms been shown to harbour them. In this work we describe novel Mutator superfamily transposons from the ...
Transposon Tn1721 distribution among strains of Xylella fastidiosa
(2002-03-05)
Transposons are mobile genetic elements found within the genomes of various organisms including bacteria, fungi, plants and animals. Fragments of the transposon Tn1721 were found included in the genome of Xylella fastidiosa ...
Transposon display supports transpositional activity of P elements in species of the saltans group of Drosophila
(2007-04-01)
Mobilization of two P element subfamilies (canonical and O-type) from Drosophila sturtevanti and D. saltans was evaluated for copy number and transposition activity using the transposon display (TD) technique. Pairwise ...
LaNe RAGE: a new tool for genomic DNA flanking sequence determination
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2005)
SmTRC1, a novel Schistosoma mansoni DNA transposon, discloses new families of animal and fungi transposons belonging to the CACTA superfamily
(2006-11)
Abstract
Background
The CACTA (also called En/Spm) superfamily of DNA-only transposons contain the core sequence CACTA in ...
Horizontal transfers of Mariner transposons between mammals and insects
(Biomed Central Ltd., 2012-09-26)
Background: Active transposable elements (TEs) can be passed between genomes of different species by horizontal transfer (HT). This may help them to avoid vertical extinction due to elimination by natural selection or ...
Genomic organization of repetitive DNAs in the cichlid fish Astronotus ocellatus
(Springer, 2009-07-01)
To contribute to the knowledge of fish genomes, we identified and characterized by means of nucleotide sequencing and physical chromosome mapping, three classes of repetitive DNAs in the genome of the South American cichlid ...
Karyotypic Evolution and Chromosomal Organization of Repetitive DNA Sequences in Species of Panaque, Panaqolus, and Scobinancistrus (Siluriformes and Loricariidae) from the Amazon Basin
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2017-06-01)
Loricariidae family comprises the greatest variability of Neotropical catfish species, with more than 800 valid species. This family shows significant chromosomal diversity. Mapping of repetitive DNA sequences can be very ...
Canonical P elements are transcriptionally active in the saltans group of Drosophila
(2004-07-01)
Up to now, investigations of expression and regulation of P transposable element have been almost exclusively carried out with the Drosophila melanogaster canonical P element. Analyzing eight species of the saltans group, ...
New mariner elements in Anastrepha species (Diptera: Tephritidae)
(Entomological Soc Brasil, 2011-09-01)
Mariner-like elements (MLE) are members from class II of transposable elements also known as DNA transposons. These elements have a wide distribution among different groups of organisms, including insects, which can be ...
