Classification of LTR Retrotransposons via Interaction Prediction

open access: yes2024 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (CIBCB)
Transposable Elements (TEs) are genetic sequences that can relocate within the genome, promoting genetic diversity. In eukaryotes, TEs are classified into classes, subclasses, orders, superfamilies, families, and subfamilies. LTR retrotransposons (LTR-RT)

Mollusc genomes reveal variability in patterns of LTR-retrotransposons dynamics

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background The three superfamilies of Long Terminal Repeat (LTR) retrotransposons are a widespread kind of transposable element and a major factor in eukaryotic genome evolution.

Retrotransposons: How the continuous evolutionary front shapes plant genomes for response to heat stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Long terminal repeat retrotransposons (LTR retrotransposons) are the most abundant group of mobile genetic elements in eukaryotic genomes and are essential in organizing genomic architecture and phenotypic variations.

Skipper, an LTR retrotransposon of Dictyostelium [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 1998
The complete sequence of a retrotransposon from Dictyostelium discoideum , named skipper , was obtained from cDNA and genomic clones. The sequence of a nearly full-length skipper cDNA was similar to that of three other partially sequenced cDNAs. The corresponding retrotransposon is represented in approximately 15-20 copies and is abundantly transcribed.

Identification of an active LTR retrotransposon in rice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2009
SummaryTransposable elements are ubiquitous components of plant genomes. When active, these mobile elements can induce changes in the genome at both the structural and functional levels. Availability of the complete genome sequence for several model plant species provides the opportunity to study TEs in plants at an unprecedented scale.

What Can Long Terminal Repeats Tell Us About the Age of LTR Retrotransposons, Gene Conversion and Ectopic Recombination?

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
LTR retrotransposons constitute a significant part of plant genomes and their evolutionary dynamics play an important role in genome size changes.

Activation of a LTR-retrotransposon by telomere erosion [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003
Retrotransposons can facilitate repair of broken chromosomes, and therefore an important question is whether the host can activate retrotransposons in response to chromosomal lesions. Here we show that Ty1 elements, which are LTR-retrotransposons in Saccharomyces cerevisiae , are mobilized ...
