Whole genome resequencing reveals natural target site preferences of transposable elements in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
Transposable elements are mobile DNA sequences that integrate into host genomes using diverse mechanisms with varying degrees of target site specificity.

LTR-retrotransposons in R. exoculata and other crustaceans [PDF]
Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. They can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms. Knowledge of their distribution among several genomes is

Sex and the TEs: transposable elements in sexual development and function in animals
Transposable elements are endogenous DNA sequences able to integrate into and multiply within genomes. They constitute a major source of genetic innovations, as they can not only rearrange genomes but also spread ready-to-use regulatory sequences able to

A comparative study of Tam3 and Ac transposition in transgenic tobacco and petunia plants [PDF]
Transposition of the Anthirrinum majus Tam3 element and the Zea mays Ac element has been monitored in petunia and tobacco plants. Plant vectors were constructed with the transposable elements cloned into the leader sequence of a marker gene ...

Integrating transposable elements in the 3D genome [PDF]
Chromosome organisation is increasingly recognised as an essential component of genome regulation, cell fate and cell health. Within the realm of transposable elements (TEs) however, the spatial information of how genomes are folded is still only rarely ...

The evolution of tyrosine-recombinase elements in Nematoda. [PDF]
Transposable elements can be categorised into DNA and RNA elements based on their mechanism of transposition. Tyrosine recombinase elements (YREs) are relatively rare and poorly understood, despite sharing characteristics with both DNA and RNA elements ...
