Identification of transcriptionally active transposons in Barley [PDF]
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 ...

Transposons play an important role in the evolution and diversification of centromeres among closely related species [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Centromeres are important chromosomal regions necessary for eukaryotic cell segregation and replication. Due to high amounts of tandem repeats and transposons, centromeres have been difficult to sequence in most multicellular organisms, thus their ...

Understanding the Regulation Activities of Transposons in Driving the Variation and Evolution of Polyploid Plant Genome [PDF]
PlantsTransposon is the main component of the eukaryotic genome, and more and more plant genome data show that transposons are diverse in regulating genome structure, variation, function and evolution, with different transposition mechanisms in the genome ...

Nonhomologous recombination: bacterial transposons [PDF]
, 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

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 ...

, 2023 International audienceABSTRACT A series of “molecular domestication” events are thought to have converted an invertebrate RAG-like (RAGL) transposase into the RAG1-RAG2 (RAG) recombinase, a critical enzyme for adaptive immunity in jawed vertebrates.

Data_Sheet_2_The first discovery of Tc1 transposons in yeast.ZIP [PDF]
, 2023 BackgroundIdentification of transposons without close homologs is still a difficult task. IS630/Tc1/mariner transposons, classified into a superfamily, are probably the most widespread DNA transposons in nature.

On transposons and totipotency [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2020 Our perception of the role of the previously considered ‘selfish’ or ‘junk’ DNA has been dramatically altered in the past 20 years or so. A large proportion of this non-coding part of mammalian genomes is repetitive in nature, classified as either satellites or transposons. While repetitive elements can be termed selfish in terms of their amplification,
