Pipeline to detect the positional and directional relationship between transposable elements and adjacent genes in host genome

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2021
Understanding the relationship between transposable elements (TEs) and their closest positional genes in the host genome is a key point to explore their potential role in genome evolution. Transposable elements can regulate and affect gene expression not

SoyTEdb: a comprehensive database of transposable elements in the soybean genome

open access: yesBMC 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 ...

Sex and the TEs: transposable elements in sexual development and function in animals

open access: yesMobile DNA, 2019
Transposable elements are endogenous DNA sequences able to integrate into and multiply within genomes. They constitute a major source of genetic innovations, as they can not only rearrange genomes but also spread ready-to-use regulatory sequences able to

Early life exposures, neurodevelopmental disorders, and transposable elements

open access: yesNeurobiology of Stress, 2019
Transposable elements make up a much larger portion of the genome than protein-coding genes, yet we know relatively little about their function in the human genome.

Transcriptional activity of transposable elements in maize

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2010
Background Mobile genetic elements represent a high proportion of the Eukaryote genomes. In maize, 85% of genome is composed by transposable elements of several families.

Transposable Elements: No More 'Junk DNA' [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2012
Since the advent of whole-genome sequencing, transposable elements (TEs), just thought to be 'junk' DNA, have been noticed because of their numerous copies in various eukaryotic genomes.

Era-like GTP protein gene expression in rice

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
The mutations are genetic changes in the genome sequences and have a significant role in biotechnology, genetics, and molecular biology even to find out the genome sequences of a cell DNA along with the viral RNA sequencing.

Paired-end mappability of transposable elements in the human genome

open access: yesMobile 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.

Epigenetic conflict on a degenerating Y chromosome increases mutational burden in Drosophila males

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Selfish DNA such as transposable elements cause intragenomic conflict. This study finds that on an evolutionarily young, gene-rich Drosophila Y chromosome, transposable elements evade heterochromatic suppression, leading to elevated transposition rates ...

Host-parasite relationships in the genome

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2011
Transposable elements are best interpreted as genomic parasites, proliferating in genomes through their over-replication relative to the rest of the genome. A new study examining correlations across Drosophila species between transposable element numbers
