Filamentous ascomycete genomes provide insights into Copia retrotransposon diversity in fungi

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background The relative scarcity of Copia retrotransposons has been recently characterized in metazoans in comparison with the other superfamilies of LTR elements.

Characterization, Genomic Organization, Abundance, and Chromosomal Distribution of Ty1-copia Retrotransposons in Erianthus arundinaceus

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Erianthus arundinaceus is an important wild species of the genus Saccharum with many valuable traits. However, the composition and structure of its genome are largely unknown, which have hindered its utilization in sugarcane breeding and evolutionary ...

High nucleotide similarity of three Copia lineage LTR retrotransposons among plant genomes

bioRxiv, 2022
Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements found in the majority of eukaryotic genomes. Because of their mobility in the host genome, TEs can deeply impact the structure and evolution of chromosomes and can induce mutations affecting coding ...

Capsid transfer of the retrotransposon Copia controls structural synaptic plasticity in Drosophila. [PDF]

PLoS Biol
Transposons are parasitic genome elements that can also serve as raw material for the evolution of new cellular functions. However, how retrotransposons are selected and domesticated by host organisms to modulate synaptic plasticity remains largely ...

A copia-like retrotransposon insertion in the upstream region of the SHATTERPROOF1 gene, BnSHP1.A9, is associated with quantitative variation in pod shattering resistance in oilseed rape

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2020
Pod shatter resistance of rapeseed is influenced by a SHP1.A9 allele that contains a copia-like retrotransposon insertion in the promoter region, which silences SHP1.A9 expression epigenetically via DNA methylation.

The client-oriented model of cultural competence in healthcare organizations [PDF]

, 2019
The paper aims to propose a new model of cultural competence in health organizations based on the paradigm of client orientation. Starting from a literature review, this study takes inspiration from dimensions that characterize the cultural competence of

Occurrence of LINE, gypsy-like, and copia-like retrotransposons in the clonally propagated sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) [PDF]

, 2011
Retrotransposons are a class of transposable elements that represent a major fraction of the repetitive DNA of most eukaryotes. Their abundance stems from their expansive replication strategies.

In-cell structure and snapshots of copia retrotransposons in intact tissue by cryoelectron tomography.

Cell
Long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons belong to the transposable elements (TEs), autonomously replicating genetic elements that integrate into the host's genome.

Isolation of a transcriptionally active element of high copy number retrotransposons in sweetpotato genome [PDF]

, 2004
Many plant retrotransposons have been characterized, but only three families (Tnt1, Tto1 and Tos17) have been demonstrated to be transpositionally competent.
