Mosquito transposable elements
Genetica, 1994Most of the transposons so far characterized from mosquito genomes are retroelements which seem to be distributed worldwide. The Juan transposons constitute a family of non-LTR retroelements, or LINE-retroposons, which are dispersed in the genomes of several mosquito species.

Current Biology, 1992
Transposable elements comprise a major fraction of eukaryotic genomes. They are studied both because of their intrinsic biological interest and because they can be exploited as valuable research tools. Many interesting papers dealing with various aspects of the biology of these elements have been published during the past year and a number of new ...

Mosquito transposable elements
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2004The completion of the genome assembly for the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, and continuing genomic efforts for the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti, have allowed the use of bioinformatics tools to identify and characterize a diverse array of transposable elements (TEs) in these and other mosquito genomes. An overview of the types and

Annual Review of Genetics, 1989
Of the ten transposable element systems that have been genetically identified in maize (listed in 55), two have contributed most of the molecular data. These are the Enhancer (En) or Suppressor-mutator (Spm) system and the Activator (Ac) system. With a certain preference for En/Spm, these two systems are used as the principle examples to outline the ...

Transposable Elements and Cancer
1986Tumor progression is accompanied by many chromosomal aberrations and DNA rearrangements which contribute to the aggressiveness of the tumor. It is possible that active transposition of DNA elements play a role in these events. Approximately one third of the mammalian genome is composed of repetitive sequences (103 — 105 copies).

Evolution of transposable elements
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1986Transposable elements are at an advantage compared with other DNA sequences. This has led to the generation of transposable systems from a variety of different sources. Once fabricated, these elements can very simply acquire accessory genes, such as those that encode resistance to antibiotics.

Transposable Elements and Their Identification
2012Most genomes are populated by thousands of sequences that originated from mobile elements. On the one hand, these sequences present a real challenge in the process of genome analysis and annotation. On the other hand, there are very interesting biological subjects involved in many cellular processes.

Genomic programs are yielding tremendous amounts of data about plant genomes and their expression. In order to exploit and understand this data it will be necessary to determine the mechanisms leading to natural variation of patterns of gene expression.

1991
Transposable elements were first detected in maize by Barbara McClintock and reported in the 1950s. These were revealed by experiments that were designed for a cytogenetic study involving the short arm of chromosome 9. It was in the progeny of plants undergoing the chromosomal type of breakage—fusion—bridge cycle that a burst of somatic instability and

Transposable Elements in Eukaryotes
1985Publisher Summary This chapter classifies transposable elements according to their structure. It reviews some of the information available concerning transposable elements of each type. It also discusses some questions raised by transposable elements in general, particularly with regard to their biological significance and their possible use as ...
