Title:
PROTOP1_DR, a nonautonomous P-like DNA transposon from zebrafish.
Journal:
Repbase Reports 2(4), 23-23 (2002)
Abstract:
The consensus sequence was reconstructed based on 10 copies present in sequenced DNA that represents ~1% of the genome. Approximately 1000 copies of PROTOP1_DR are expected to populate the complete zebrafish genome. PROTOP1_DR copies are 7% divergent from the consensus sequence. This element is characterized by 33-bp terminal inverted repeats and 7-bp targets site duplications. We classify this element as a nonautonomous DNA transposon from the P superfamily. PROTOP, PROTOP_A and PROTOP_B DNA transposons found previously in D. melanogaster are characterized also by 7-bp TSD and 30-bp TIRs similar to those in PROTOP1_DR.
