Abstract:
Gypsy-18-I_DR is an internal portion of the Gypsy-18_DR LTR retrotransposon that belongs to the Gypsy superfamily. Its long terminal repeat is deposited in Repbase as Gypsy-18-LTR_DR. The genome contains one copy of Gypsy-18-I_DR that is flanked by identical LTRs. The internal portion contains two ORFs encoding Gypsy-like gag and pol proteins. The first ORF encodes the 612-aa Gypsy-18_DR1p gag (pos. 225- 2060). The second ORF encodes the 1578-aa Gypsy-18_DR2p pol protein (pos. 2021-6754) composed of the protease, reverse transcriptase, and integrase domains. This retrotransposon can be still active.
