Transposable elements

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 ...

Plant Transposable Elements

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 cancer

Nature Reviews Cancer, 2017
Transposable elements give rise to interspersed repeats, sequences that comprise most of our genomes. These mobile DNAs have been historically underappreciated - both because they have been presumed to be unimportant, and because their high copy number and variability pose unique technical challenges. Neither impediment now seems steadfast. Interest in

Transposable elements in mosquitoes

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2005
We describe the current state of knowledge about transposable elements (TEs) in different mosquito species. DNA-based elements (class II elements), non-LTR retrotransposons (class I elements), and MITEs (Miniature Inverted Repeat Transposable Elements) are found in the three genera, <i>Anopheles, Aedes</i> and <i>Culex</i> ...

Transposable Elements and Cancer

1986
Tumor 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, 1986
Transposable 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.
