Fidelity of Retrotransposon Replication

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1999
ABSTRACT: Ty1, the genetically tractable retrotransposable element found in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, closely resembles vertebrate retroviruses both in structure and in mechanism of replication. By direct sequence analysis, we examined the rate and spectrum of new mutations appearing during a single cycle of Ty1 replication.

Retrotransposon families in rice

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1992
Three families of retrotransposons of rice (Tos1, Tos2, and Tos3) were isolated by using a method based on the sequence conservation of the primer binding site for reverse transcription. This method should be generally applicable for cloning retrotransposon of other plants. One retrotransposon, Tos3-1, was studied in detail.

Yeast retrotransposons and tRNAs

Trends in Genetics, 1993
The role of tRNAs in protein synthesis seems routine when compared with the novel ways in which the Ty retrotransposons of Saccharomyces cerevisiae use these interpreters of the genetic code. tRNAs and tRNA genes control essential steps in the retrotransposon life cycle by regulating protein expression, priming DNA synthesis and specifying integration ...

Retrotransposons and regulatory suites

BioEssays, 2005
Cellular differentiation and multicellular development require the programmed expression of coregulated suites of genetic loci dispersed throughout the genome. How do functionally diverse loci come to share common regulatory motifs? A new paper finds that retrotransposons (RTEs) may play a role in providing common regulation to a group of functions ...

Retrotransposon replication in plants

Current Opinion in Virology, 2013
Retrotransposons comprise the bulk of large plant genomes, replicating via an RNA intermediate whereby the original, integrated element remains in place. Of the two main orders, the LTR retrotransposons considerably outnumber the LINEs. LINEs integrate into target sites simultaneously with the RNA transcript being copied into cDNA by target-primed ...

Sex and retrotransposons

Trends in Microbiology, 2001
Transposable genetic elements (TGEs) produce major deleterious effects in the host organism yet they still spread through the populations of sexually reproducing organisms. TGEs can become established in sexual populations because sexual reproduction allows them to go to fixation if the reduction in fitness of the host is less than twofold.
