EpiTEome: Simultaneous detection of transposable element insertion sites and their DNA methylation levels

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2017
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 ...

Domesticated P elements in the Drosophila montium species subgroup have a new function related to a DNA binding property [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Evolution vol ? (2005) sous presse, 2005
Molecular domestication of a transposable element is defined as its functional recruitment by the host genome. To date, two independent events of molecular domestication of the P transposable element have been described: in the Drosophila obscura species group and in the Drosophila montium species subgroup.

Modulating signaling networks by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated transposable element insertion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In a recent past, transposable elements (TEs) were referred to as selfish genetic components only capable of copying themselves with the aim of increasing the odds of being inherited.

A Field Guide to Eukaryotic Transposable Elements.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Genetics, 2020
Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile DNA sequences that propagate within genomes. Through diverse invasion strategies, TEs have come to occupy a substantial fraction of nearly all eukaryotic genomes, and they represent a major source of genetic ...

Recombination drives vertebrate genome contraction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Selective and/or neutral processes may govern variation in DNA content and, ultimately, genome size. The observation in several organisms of a negative correlation between recombination rate and intron size could be compatible with a neutral model in ...

Double insertion of transposable elements provides a substrate for the evolution of satellite DNA

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2017
Eukaryotic genomes are replete with repeated sequences, in the form of transposable elements (TEs) dispersed across the genome or as satellite arrays, large stretches of tandemly repeated sequence.

The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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 ...

Transposable elements in Drosophila

open access: yesMobile DNA, 2020
Drosophila has been studied as a biological model for many years and many discoveries in biology rely on this species. Research on transposable elements (TEs) is not an exception.

DNA rearrangements associated with a transposable element in yeast

open access: yesCell, 1980
The his4-912 mutation results from insertion of a 6200 bp transposable element into the his4 gene of yeast. In order to clone the his4-912 mutation, the plasmid pBR322 was integrated into the his4 gene by means of yeast transformation, and then the vector sequences and the his4-912 insertion element were excised as a single restriction fragment.

Species identification in fish meal from urban fisheries biomass with DNA metabarcoding analysis

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 562-571, December 2022., 2022
Fish species constructing fish meal (FM) made from urban fisheries biomass, which is fisheries by‐products collected downstream in the seafood supply chain were detected with a DNA metabarcoding method. 81–122 species were detected in the FM, and fish species indicated as Critically Endangered (CR) or Endangered (EN) on the International Union for ...
