We have divided this review into two major sections. In one, we have attempted to present an overview of our current understanding of prokaryotic insertion sequences (IS), their diversity in sequence, in organization and ...

Despite the wide distribution of transposable elements (TEs) in mammalian genomes, part of their evolutionary significance remains to be discovered. Today there is a substantial amount of evidence showing that TEs are ...

A prerequisite for commercial release of a transgenic crop variety inArgentina and other countries in the world is the identification and sequenceanalysis of the transgene(s) insertion site in the plant genome. Southern ...

The IS6 family of bacterial and archaeal insertion sequences, first identified in the early 1980s, has proved to be instrumental in the rearrangement and spread of multiple antibiotic resistance. Two IS, IS26 (found in ...

Few are studies on P elements that have addressed the saltans group. These studies had shown that species from the cordata and elliptica subgroups were devoid of any discernible P homologous sequences, while species from ...
