Sequences Related to Transposable Elements and Bacteriophages Flank Avirulence Genes of Pseudomonas syringae

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
Examination of the reported nucleotide sequences containing avirulence genes of Pseudomonas syringae pathovars suggested that avrA, avrB, avrC, avrPphC, avrRpm1, and avrPpiA1 are bordered by sequences similar to those of transposable elements of gram ...

Prokaryotic Transposable Elements

Prokaryotes have provided an abundance of transposable elements (TEs), which have greatly contributed to our present understanding of the importance of TE in remodeling their host genomes and regulating gene expression, and have been key to our present ...

Regulation of maize Ac/Ds transposition by replication and DNA methylation [PDF]

, 2001
In maize the transposable elements Activator/Dissociation (Ac/Ds) transpose shortly after replication from one of the two resulting chromatids ("chromatid selectivity"). A model was suggested that explains this phenomenon as a consequence of different Ac

Role of Polycomb in the control of transposable elements

, 2021
International audienceIt has been generally accepted that H3K9me2-3/DNA methylation and H3K27me3 silent heterochromatin marks are found in mutually exclusive genomic regions and display distinct properties.

Activity and Silencing of Transposable Elements in C. elegans

DNA
Since the discovery of transposable elements (TEs) in maize in the 1940s by Barbara McClintock transposable elements have been described as junk, as selfish elements with no benefit to the host, and more recently as major determinants of genome structure

Function and evolution of local repeats in the Firre locus

Nature Communications, 2016
Mammalian genomes contain multiple repetitive sequences such as transposable elements and local repeats. Here, the authors show that the conserved long non-coding RNA Firre contains repeats that act as nuclear retention signals and a DNA enhancer element.

Transposable elements in human cancer

, 2022
Transposable elements are repetitive DNA sequences consisting of RNA transposons, DNA transposons, and endogenous retroviruses. Repetitive sequences cover more than two-thirds of the genome in humans and transposable elements comprise the majority of

Using archaeogenomic and computational approaches to unravel the history of local adaptation in crops [PDF]

, 2014
Our understanding of the evolution of domestication has changed radically in the past 10 years, from a relatively simplistic rapid origin scenario to a protracted complex process in which plants adapted to the human environment.
