The biology and potential for genetic research of transposable elements in filamentous fungi
Recently many transposable elements have been identified and characterized in filamentous fungi, especially in species of agricultural, biotechnological and medical interest.

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 ...

Perspective for Studying the Relationship of miRNAs with Transposable Elements
Transposable elements are important sources of miRNA, long non-coding RNAs genes, and their targets in the composition of protein-coding genes in plants and animals.

The effects of recombination rate on the distribution and abundance of transposable elements [PDF]
Transposable elements (TEs) often accumulate in regions of the genome with suppressed recombination. But it is unclear whether this pattern reflects a reduction in the efficacy of selection against deleterious insertions or a relaxation of ectopic ...

Nucleotide sequence of the transposable DNA-element IS2
The complete sequence of the transposable DNA element IS2 in gal OP-308:: IS2 (I) has been determined. This element is 1.327 bp long. The integrated element is flanked by a five base pair long sequence duplication. The termini of IS2 are not perfect inverted repeats, but a close approximation.

The genome-wide investigation of DNA methylation levels has been limited to reference transposable element positions. The methylation analysis of non-reference and mobile transposable elements has only recently been performed, but required both genome ...

Enhancer activation from transposable elements in extrachromosomal DNA
AbstractExtrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is a hallmark of aggressive cancer, contributing to both oncogene amplification and tumor heterogeneity. Here, we used Hi-C, super-resolution imaging, and long-read sequencing to explore the nuclear architecture ofMYC-amplified ecDNA in colorectal cancer cells.

Transposable elements as new players in neurodegenerative diseases
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), including the most prevalent Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson disease, share common pathological features. Despite decades of gene‐centric approaches, the molecular mechanisms underlying these diseases remain widely ...

The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]
We isolated and characterized a Brassica C genome-specific CACTA element, which was designated Bot1 (Brassica oleracea transposon 1). After analysing phylogenetic relationships, copy numbers and sequence similarity of Bot1 and Bot1 analogues in B ...

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 ...
