Subunit Interactions in the mariner Transposase [PDF]
Abstract We have studied the Mos1 transposase encoded by the transposable element mariner. This transposase is a member of the “D,D(35)E” superfamily of proteins exhibiting the motif D,D(34)D. It is not known whether this transposase, or other eukaryote transposases manifesting the D,D(35)E domain, functions in a multimeric form ...

Comparative genome analysis of Wolbachia strain wAu [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Wolbachia intracellular bacteria can manipulate the reproduction of their arthropod hosts, including inducing sterility between populations known as cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI). Certain strains have been identified that are unable to

Transcription factors and molecular markers revealed asymmetric contributions between allotetraploid Upland cotton and its two diploid ancestors [PDF]
Three Gossypium species have been used to breed cotton as they vary in their fiber production and resistance to stresses. Transcription factors (TFs) mostly are present in different copies or isoforms by which they conduct their regulation.

Tn5 transposase‐assisted transformation of indica rice [PDF]
SummaryHere, we describe experiments on Tn5 transposase‐assisted transformation of indica rice. Transposomes were formed in vitro as a result of hyperactive Tn5 transposase complexing with a transposon that contained a 19‐bp tetracycline operator (tetO) sequence. To form modified projectiles for transformation, the Tn10‐derived prokaryotic tetracycline

The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]
We isolated and characterized a Brassica C genome-specific CACTA element, which was designated Bot1 (Brassica oleracea transposon 1). After analysing phylogenetic relationships, copy numbers and sequence similarity of Bot1 and Bot1 analogues in B ...

Transposase-mediated gene modulation in the placenta [PDF]
The placenta is an organ vital to fetal development as well as the maintenance of a healthy pregnancy and plays a crucial role in developmental programming of the fetus. The mechanisms that link intrauterine milieu, fetal health and disease development later in life are poorly understood. Placenta-specific gene modulation, both by generating transgenic

A Family of Developmentally Excised DNA Elements in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena\u3c/em\u3e is under Selective Pressure to Maintain an Open Reading Frame Encoding an Integrase-Like Protein [PDF]
Tlr1 is a member of a family of ~20-30 DNA elements that undergo developmentally regulated excision during formation of the macronucleus in the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena.
