Abstract:
RandI-6 is a family of RandI non-LTR retrotransposons. Approximately 50 copies of RandI-6 are present in the genome. They are ~1% divergent from the consensus sequence and are likely mobile. The RanI-6 elements are usually flanked by 10-15-bp target site duplications. The consensus sequence encodes a 4527-aa RandI-6p protein (nucleotide pos. 44-13624) composed of the AP endonuclease (aa pos. 2010-2290), reverse transcriptase (aa pos. 2660-2960), and RNase H1 (aa pos. 4025-4190) domains. A 144-aa portion of RandI-6p (aa pos. 1463-1616) matches the Josephin domain (E < 0.001; pfam02099) and is conserved in other RandI polyproteins.
