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

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.

SERpredict: Detection of tissue- or tumor-specific isoforms generated through exonization of transposable elements [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genetics 2007 8:78, 2008
Background: Transposed elements (TEs) are known to affect transcriptomes, because either new exons are generated from intronic transposed elements (this is called exonization), or the element inserts into the exon, leading to a new transcript. Several examples in the literature show that isoforms generated by an exonization are specific to a certain ...

The transposable elements of the Drosophila melanogaster euchromatin: a genomics perspective. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: Transposable elements are found in the genomes of nearly all eukaryotes. The recent completion of the Release 3 euchromatic genomic sequence of Drosophila melanogaster by the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project has provided precise sequence ...

Increased levels of endogenous retroviruses trigger fibroinflammation and play a role in kidney disease development

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The contribution of transposable elements and endogenous retroviruses to renal fibroinflammation is currently unknown. Here, the authors comprehensively profile the expression of transposable elements and endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) in kidneys of ...

Transposable elements inDrosophila [PDF]

open access: yesMobile Genetic Elements, 2017
Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements that can mobilize within host genomes. As TEs comprise more than 40% of the human genome and are linked to numerous diseases, understanding their mechanisms of mobilization and regulation is important. Drosophila melanogaster is an ideal model organism for the study of eukaryotic TEs as its genome

Transposable elements in yeasts

open access: yesC R Biol., 2011
With the development of new sequencing technologies in the past decade, yeast genomes have been extensively sequenced and their structures investigated. Transposable elements (TEs) are ubiquitous in eukaryotes and constitute a limited part of yeast genomes. However, due to their ability to move in genomes and generate dispersed repeated sequences, they

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.

Transposing from the laboratory to the classroom to generate authentic research experiences for undergraduates. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Large lecture classes and standardized laboratory exercises are characteristic of introductory biology courses. Previous research has found that these courses do not adequately convey the process of scientific research and the excitement of discovery ...

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
