Title:
piggyBac-N7_SP, a family of nonautonomous DNA transposons in the sea urchin genome.
Journal:
Repbase Reports 5(7), 185-185 (2005)
Abstract:
The genome harbors ~10,000 copies of piggyBac-N7_SP elements that are >90% identical to the consensus sequence. Approximately 1000 copies are less than 1% divergent from each other. This transposon is characterized by 14-bp terminal inverted repeats and the TTAA target site duplications (TTAAA is a preferential target site).
