Catabolic transposons

Biodegradation, 1994
The structure and function of transposable elements that code for catabolic pathways involved in the biodegradation of organic compounds are reviewed. Seven of these catabolic transposons have structural features that place them in the Class I (composite) or Class II (Tn3-family) bacterial elements. One is a conjugative transposon.

Polyploidy and transposons

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1998
In his interesting commentary on transposable elements (TEs), gene silencing and macroevolution, John McDonald[1xMcDonald, J. Trends Ecol. Evol. 1998; 13: 94–95Abstract | Full Text PDF | PubMed | Scopus (52)See all References[1]omitted a major player that has acted in concert with TEs to drive vertebrate and plant evolution, namely, polyploidy.

THE TN5 TRANSPOSON

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1993
The bacterial transposon Tn5 encodes two proteins, the transposase and a related protein, the transposition inhibitor, whose relative abundance determines, in part, the frequency of Tn5 transposition. The synthesis of these proteins is programmed by a complex set of genetic regulatory elements.

Transposon Display: A Versatile Method for Transposon Tagging

2013
Transposon tagging has been used successfully in a range of organisms for the cloning of mutants of interest. In species containing high copy numbers of transposable elements combined with a high transposition rate, forward cloning can be quite challenging and requires specific high-resolution methods.

DNA Sequencing with Transposons

Journal of Computational Biology, 2000
The use of transposons offers the possibility of a directed approach to DNA sequencing, where a target DNA up to about 6kb in length can be sequenced quickly and with minimal redundancy. Transposons are mobile DNA elements which can be inserted in a reasonably random fashion into the target DNA.
