Foldback Intercoil DNA and the Mechanism of DNA Transposition [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2014
Foldback intercoil (FBI) DNA is formed by the folding back at one point of a non-helical parallel track of double-stranded DNA at as sharp as 180° and the intertwining of two double helixes within each other's major groove to form an intercoil with a ...

Plant retroviruses: structure, evolution and future applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Retroelements, which replicate by reverse transcription, have been detected in higher plants, higher animals, fungi, insects and bacteria. They have been classified into viral retroelements, eukaryotic chromosomal non-viral retroelements and bacterial ...

SNP-Density Crossover Maps of Polymorphic Transposable Elements and HLA Genes Within MHC Class I Haplotype Blocks and Junction

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
The genomic region (~4 Mb) of the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6p21 is a prime model for the study and understanding of conserved polymorphic sequences (CPSs) and structural diversity of ancestral haplotypes (AHs)/conserved ...

The role of retroelements in the development of hereditary tumor syndromes

open access: yesУспехи молекулярной онкологии, 2021
Genomic instability caused by activated retroelements plays an important role in the development of malignant neoplasms. Activated retroelements cause enhanced expression of oncogenes containing transposon sequences in their promoters and introns ...

LTR-retrotransposons in R. exoculata and other crustaceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Transposon Reactivation in the Germline May Be Useful for Both Transposons and Their Host Genomes

open access: yesCells, 2020
Transposable elements (TEs) are long-term residents of eukaryotic genomes that make up a large portion of these genomes. They can be considered as perfectly fine members of genomes replicating with resident genes and being transmitted vertically to the ...

Generalized nuclear localization of retroelement transcripts

open access: yesMobile DNA, 2022
Background LINE-1s, Alus and SVAs are the only retrotransposition competent elements in humans. Their mobilization followed by insertional mutagenesis is often linked to disease.

Relationship of transposable elements with long non-coding RNAs and peptides in carcinogenesis

open access: yesУспехи молекулярной онкологии, 2023
It has been proven that 98 % of the human genome is transcribed. The main part of resulting molecules after their processing function as various RNA molecules, among which the best known are long noncoding RNA (lncRNA)  and microRNA.
