Abstract:
GYPSY1_AG is a family of Gypsy-like LTR retrotransposons. GYPSY1-I_AG, an internal portion of GYPSY1_AG, is flanked by GYPSY1-LTR_AG LTRs. The GYPSY1-I_AG consensus sequence was reconstructed based on multiple alignment of 12 copies; they are less than 1% divergent from the consensus sequence. Some copies of GYPSY1_AG are 100% identical to each other. They can be active retroelements. The consensus sequence encodes the Gypsy1_AG1p 239-bp gag-like protein (pos. 67-782) and the 1029-aa Gypsy1_AG2p, composed of the AP protease (pos. 40-130), reverse transcriptase (pos. 227-394), and integrase (pos. 744-900) domains.
