Plant Direct, 2021 Plant chromatin dynamics are generally recognized as playing a role in the genomic response to environmental stress. Although stress‐induced transcriptional activities of LTR‐retrotransposons have been reported, whether the stress response can be ...

LTR-retrotransposons in R. exoculata and other crustaceans [PDF]
, 2013 Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. They can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms. Knowledge of their distribution among several genomes is

Lost in translation : The biogenesis of non-LTR retrotransposon proteins [PDF]
, 2013 This research was supported by UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and the Wellcome Trust.“Young” APE-type non-LTR retrotransposons (non-LTRs) typically encode two open reading frames (ORFs 1 and 2).

Chromodomains and LTR retrotransposons in plants [PDF]
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2009 A chromodomain is a domain contained in various proteins involved in chromatin remodeling and the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes during development. Chromodomains perform a wide range of diverse functions including chromatin targeting and interactions between different proteins, RNA and DNA.

APE-type non-LTR retrotransposons of multicellular organisms encode virus-like 2A oligopeptide sequences, which mediate translational recoding during protein synthesis [PDF]
, 2013 2A oligopeptide sequences (“2As”) mediate a cotranslational recoding event termed “ribosome skipping.” Previously we demonstrated the activity of 2As (and “2A-like sequences”) within a wide range of animal RNA virus genomes and non-long terminal repeat ...

Non-LTR retrotransposons and microsatellites [PDF]
Mobile Genetic Elements, 2013 The human genome is laden with both non-LTR (long-terminal repeat) retrotransposons and microsatellite repeats. Both types of sequences are able to, either actively or passively, mutagenize the genomes of human individuals and are therefore poised to dynamically alter the human genomic landscape across generations.

Genome-wide survey and comparative analysis of LTR retrotransposons and their captured genes in rice and sorghum. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons are the major class I mobile elements in plants. They play crucial roles in gene expansion, diversification and evolution.

A specific insertion of a solo-LTR characterizes the Y chromosome of Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae) [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Relatively few species of flowering plants are dioecious and even fewer are known to have sex chromosomes. Current theory posits that homomorphic sex chromosomes, such as found in Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae), offer insight into the early ...

LTR-LTR ages and terminal branch length ages for LTR retrotransposons.
, 2021 Ages in 10,000 year bins across each of the largest 10 families of each superfamily with at least 10 copies. Left plots (A-D) show LTR-LTR ages, right plots (E-H) show terminal branch length (TBL) ages. (A) all copies, LTR-LTR, (B) RLC families, LTR-LTR,
