Abstract:
GYPSY5_AG is a family of autonomous Gypsy-like LTR retrotransposons. GYPSY5-I_AG, an internal portion of GYPSY5_AG, is flanked by GYPSY5-LTR_AG LTRs. The GYPSY5-I_AG consensus sequence was reconstructed based on multiple alignment of 15 copies; they are less than 1% divergent from the consensus sequence. Two elements are 100% identical to the consensus and contain intact ORF, thus the family appear to be still active. The consensus sequence encodes the 1469-aa GYPSY5_AGp protein (pos. 35-4441), composed of gag (zinc-finger, 309-357), protease (403-492), reverse transcriptase (pos. 668-837) and integrase (pos. 1181-1332) domains.
