Identification of transcriptionally active transposons in Barley
BMC Genomic Data, 2023 Background The genomes of many major crops including barley (Hordeum vulgare) consist of numerous transposons. Despite their important roles in crop genome evolution and morphological variations, most of these elements are silent or truncated and unable ...

Environmental stress and transposons in plants [PDF]
, 2022 Transposons were once thought to be junk repetitive DNA in the genome. However, their importance gradually became apparent as it became clear that they regulate gene expression, which is essential for organisms to survive, and that they are important ...

Insects, 2023 Natural transposons (NTs) represent mobile DNA sequences found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes. Drosophila melanogaster (the fruit fly) is a eukaryotic model organism with NTs standing for about 20% of its genome and has contributed ...

Nonhomologous recombination: bacterial transposons
, 2021 International audienceTransposons, also called “jumping genes” are DNA fragments capable of moving/transposing from one locus to another within or between genomes. Transposons are ubiquitous and are present in all kingdoms of life. They can be present as

The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]
, 2008 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 ...

Molecular analysis of hobo and Himar 1 transposition [PDF]
, 2003 The aim of this study is to find out more about how eukaryotic transposons work. Transposons are widespread genetic elements that can autonomously change their position within a genome.

The role of transposable elements in the ecological morphogenesis under the influence of stress
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2019 In natural selection, insertional mutagenesis is an important source of genome variability. Transposons are sensors of environmental stress effects, which contribute to adaptation and speciation.

RNA helicase domains of viral origin in proteins of insect retrotransposons: possible source for evolutionary advantages [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Recently, a novel phenomenon of horizontal gene transfer of helicase-encoding sequence from positive-stranded RNA viruses to LINE transposons in insect genomes was described.

Insertion of Exogenous Genes within the ORF1a Coding Region of Porcine Astrovirus
Viruses, 2021 A tagged or reporter astrovirus can be a valuable tool for the analysis of various aspects of the virus life cycle, and to aid in the development of genetically engineered astroviruses as vectors.
