Title:
DNA9TA1_DR, a composite nonautonomous DNA transposon from zebrafish.
Journal:
Repbase Reports 2(4), 11-11 (2002)
Abstract:
The consensus sequence was reconstructed based on 7 copies present in sequenced DNA representing 1% of the genome. Approximately 700 copies of DNA9TA1_DR are expected to populate the complete zebrafish genome. The element was active recently, its copies are only 2% divergent from the consensus sequence. Given its length, 9-bp terminal inverted repeats, the TA targets site duplications, DNA9TA1_DR is a quite unusual nonautonomous DNA transposon. Its classification is not certain yet, although it is expected to be a member of the Mariner/Tc1 superfamily. DNA9TA1_TR carries also remnants of the HARBINGER2N_DR DNA transposon (positions 2186-2311). The genome harbors also copies of an ancient transposon which is ancestral to DNA9TA1_TR and does not have insertion of HARBINGER2N_DR.
