SoyTEdb: a comprehensive database of transposable elements in the soybean genome [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2010 Background Transposable elements are the most abundant components of all characterized genomes of higher eukaryotes. It has been documented that these elements not only contribute to the shaping and reshaping of their host genomes, but also play ...

Paired-end mappability of transposable elements in the human genome [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2019 Though transposable elements make up around half of the human genome, the repetitive nature of their sequences makes it difficult to accurately align conventional sequencing reads.

Transposable Elements, Inflammation, and Neurological Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Transposable Elements (TE) are mobile DNA elements that can replicate and insert themselves into different locations within the host genome. Their propensity to self-propagate has a myriad of consequences and yet their biological significance is not well-

Integrating transposable elements in the 3D genome [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2020 Chromosome organisation is increasingly recognised as an essential component of genome regulation, cell fate and cell health. Within the realm of transposable elements (TEs) however, the spatial information of how genomes are folded is still only rarely ...

Transposable elements in Drosophila [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2020 Drosophila 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.

The repetitive genome of the Ixodes ricinus tick reveals transposable elements have driven genome evolution in ticks [PDF]
Genome BiologyBackground Ticks are obligate blood-feeding parasites associated with a huge diversity of diseases globally. The hard tick Ixodes ricinus is the key vector of Lyme borreliosis and tick-borne encephalitis in Western Eurasia.

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

Dynamic dosage changes in X-linked transposable elements during mammalian dosage compensation [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsIn mammals, X-linked dosage compensation involves X-chromosome inactivation to balance X chromosome dosage between males and females, and hyperactivation of the remaining X-chromosome (Xa-hyperactivation) to achieve X-autosome balance in both sexes ...

Perspective for Studying the Relationship of miRNAs with Transposable Elements
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023 Transposable elements are important sources of miRNA, long non-coding RNAs genes, and their targets in the composition of protein-coding genes in plants and animals.
