Population genetics of transposable DNA elements
Genetica, 1992This paper is an attempt to bring together the various, dispersed data published in the literature on insertion polymorphism of transposable elements from various kinds of populations (natural populations, laboratory strains, isofemale and inbred lines).

Analysis of the cis-acting DNA elements required for piggyBac transposable element excision
Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1997The terminal DNA sequence requirements for piggyBac transposable element excision were explored using a plasmid-based assay in transfected, cultured insect cells. A donor plasmid containing duplicate 3' piggyBac terminal inverted repeats was constructed that allowed individual nucleotides or groups of nucleotides within one of the 3' repeats to be ...

| Transposable elements as selfish DNA
1995Abstract Biologists seek functional explanations for the attributes of organisms. Such explanations show the advantage that the attribute gives to the organism. Any attribute, including components of the genome, can potentially be explained in this way.

Structural and functional liaisons between transposable elements and satellite DNAs
Chromosome Research, 2015Transposable elements (TEs) and satellite DNAs (satDNAs) are typically identified as major repetitive DNA components in eukaryotic genomes. TEs are DNA segments able to move throughout a genome while satDNAs are tandemly repeated sequences organized in long arrays.

Potential movement of transposable elements through DNA circularization
Current Genetics, 2016The generation of circular DNAs is a relatively unrecognized type of genomic structural variation, but recent findings point to a possible role of circular DNAs in the movement of transposable elements. Circularization of genomic DNA is observed across eukaryotic species, in a range of different cell types, and from all parts of the genome.

DNA Methylation and Activity of the Maize Spm Transposable Element
1995Maize transposons were the first plant genes known to undergo reversible heritable inactivation. Early in the study of the Suppressor-mutator (Spm) trans-posable element McClintock recognized that certain isolates of the element either cycled between inactive and active phases during development or underwent an inactivation event of longer duration and

DNA Methylation and Transposable Genetic Elements
1984The process of DNA methylation has excited the imagination of many investigators since Gold etal. (1963 a, b) demonstrated an enzyme which transferred methyl groups from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to DNA. The feasibility of this process had been indicated by the discovery that a similar transfer was catalyzed in vitro by soluble enzymes from ...

DNA sequence analysis of a Drosophila foldback transposable element rearrangement
Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1982The complete nucleotide sequence of a DNA rearrangement associated with the foldback 4 (FB 4) transposable element is presented. The results demonstrate that the entire loop sequence and almost all of one of the inverted terminal repeats is absent.
