AluMine: alignment-free method for the discovery of polymorphic Alu element insertions [0.03%]
一种无需比对的方法发现多态性Alu元件插入事件：AluMine方法学及其应用
Tarmo Puurand,Viktoria Kukuškina,Fanny-Dhelia Pajuste et al.
Tarmo Puurand et al.
Background: Recently, alignment-free sequence analysis methods have gained popularity in the field of personal genomics. These methods are based on counting frequencies of short k-mer sequences, thus allowing faster and m...
Differential retention of transposable element-derived sequences in outcrossing Arabidopsis genomes [0.03%]

Though transposable elements make up around half of the human genome, the repetitive nature of their sequences makes it difficult to accurately align conventional sequencing reads. However, in light of new advances in sequencing technology,...
flam piRNA precursors channel from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in a temporally regulated manner along Drosophila oogenesis [0.03%]
果蝇卵发生过程中核孔复合体介导piRNA前体从细胞核到细胞质的时空特异性转运
Cynthia Dennis,Emilie Brasset,Chantal Vaury
Cynthia Dennis
Background: PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are the effectors of transposable element silencing in the reproductive apparatus. In Drosophila ovarian somatic cells, piRNAs arise from long RNA precursors presumably processed...
Amplification of miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements and the associated impact on gene regulation and alternative splicing in mulberry (Morus notabilis) [0.03%]
桑树(Morus notabilis)中微型倒置重复转座子的扩增及其对基因调控和选择性拼接的影响研究
Youchao Xin,Bi Ma,Zhonghuai Xiang et al.
Youchao Xin et al.
Background: Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are common in eukaryotic genomes, and are important for genomic evolution. Results: ...
A mobile restriction modification system consisting of methylases on the IncA/C plasmid [0.03%]
质粒IncA/C中的甲基化酶构成移动限制修饰系统
Ruibai Wang,Jing Lou,Jie Li
Ruibai Wang
Background: IncA/C plasmids play important roles in the development and dissemination of multidrug resistance in bacteria. These plasmids carry three methylase genes, two of which show cytosine specificity. The effects of...
Characterization of a novel Helitron family in insect genomes: insights into classification, evolution and horizontal transfer [0.03%]
昆虫基因组中一个新型Helitron家族的表征：关于分类、进化和水平转移的见解
Guangjie Han,Nan Zhang,Jian Xu et al.
Guangjie Han et al.
Background: Helitrons play an important role in shaping eukaryotic genomes due to their ability to transfer horizontally between distantly related species and capture gene fragments during the transposition. However, the ...
Horizontal transfer of a retrotransposon between parasitic nematodes and the common shrew [0.03%]
线虫和红腹鼠妇 Retrotransposon 水平转移事件
Sonja M Dunemann,James D Wasmuth
Sonja M Dunemann
Background: As the genomes of more metazoan species are sequenced, reports of horizontal transposon transfers (HTT) have increased. Our understanding of the mechanisms of such events is at an early stage. The close physic...
Targeted gene knockin in zebrafish using the 28S rDNA-specific non-LTR-retrotransposon R2Ol [0.03%]
利用非LTR反转座子R2Ol在斑马鱼中进行靶基因定点敲入
Azusa Kuroki-Kami,Narisu Nichuguti,Haruka Yatabe et al.
Azusa Kuroki-Kami et al.
Background: Although most of long interspersed elements (LINEs), one class of non-LTR-retrotransposons, are integrated into the host genome randomely, some elements are retrotransposed into the specific sequences of the g...
Tracing the history of LINE and SINE extinction in sigmodontine rodents [0.03%]
关于_sigmodontine_啮齿动物中LINE和SINE进化消失的历史研究
Lei Yang,LuAnn Scott,Holly A Wichman
Lei Yang
Background: L1 retrotransposons have co-evolved with their mammalian hosts for the entire history of mammals and currently compose ~ 20% of a mammalian genome. B1 retrotransposons are dependent on L1 for retrotranspositio...
