Abstract: Gypsy2_TP is a young family of Gypsy-like LTR retrotransposons. Gypsy2-I_TP, an internal portion of Gypsy2_TP is flanked by 100% identical Gypsy2-LTR_TP LTRs. The consensus sequence encodes the 389-aa gag-like Gypsy2_TP1p protein (pos. 61-1227) and 1193-aa Gypsy2_TP2p polyprotein (pos. 1231-4809) composed of the protease, reverse transcriptase, ribonuclease H, and integrase domains. Gypsy2_TP is characterized by 4-bp target site duplications. There is no tRNA-like primer binding site in Gypsy2_TP. Instead, this retrotransposon uses self-priming by the 12-bp CTGTAATTACAG palindrome present at the very 5'-end of its internal portion.
