Mobile DNA, 2021 Dfam is an open access database of repetitive DNA families, sequence models, and genome annotations. The 3.0–3.3 releases of Dfam ( https://dfam.org ) represent an evolution from a proof-of-principle collection of transposable element families in model ...

Transposable element-derived sequences in vertebrate development
Mobile DNA, 2021 Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of all vertebrate genomes that can cause deleterious insertions and genomic instability. However, depending on the specific genomic context of their insertion site, TE sequences can sometimes get ...

Inference of transposable element ancestry. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Most common methods for inferring transposable element (TE) evolutionary relationships are based on dividing TEs into subfamilies using shared diagnostic nucleotides.

Identification of transposable element families from pangenome polymorphisms [PDF]
Mobile DNABackground Transposable Elements (TEs) are segments of DNA, typically a few hundred base pairs up to several tens of thousands bases long, that have the ability to generate new copies of themselves in the genome.

RepetDB: a unified resource for transposable element references
Mobile DNA, 2019 Background Thanks to their ability to move around and replicate within genomes, transposable elements (TEs) are perhaps the most important contributors to genome plasticity and evolution.

Mapping of important taxonomic and productivity traits using genic and non-genic transposable element markers in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 A mapping population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from TMV 2 and its mutant, TMV 2-NLM was employed for mapping important taxonomic and productivity traits using genic and non-genic transposable element markers in peanut.

Current Biology, 2022 Transposable elements are known by many names, including 'transposons', 'interspersed repeats', 'selfish genetic elements', 'jumping genes', and 'parasitic DNA', but here we will refer to them simply as transposable elements. Many biologists will have heard of transposable elements and their ability to transpose (change position) within the genome. But

Transposable elements in Drosophila [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2020 AbstractDrosophila has been studied as a biological model for many years and many discoveries in biology rely on this species. Research on transposable elements (TEs) is not an exception. Drosophila has contributed significantly to our knowledge on the mechanisms of transposition and their regulation, but above all, it was one of the first organisms on

Transposable element landscapes in aging Drosophila.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 Genetic mechanisms that repress transposable elements (TEs) in young animals decline during aging, as reflected by increased TE expression in aged animals. Does increased TE expression during aging lead to more genomic TE copies in older animals?

Transposable element-mediated rearrangements are prevalent in human genomes
bioRxiv, 2022 Here the authors show that transposable element-mediated rearrangements impact more than 500 kbp of an average human genome, are a source of individual variation, a substrate for evolutionary change, and can occur through diverse mechanisms. Transposable
