Title:
Mariner1_AO, a family of Mariner/Tc1 DNA transposons in the Aspergillus oryzae genome.

Abstract:
This is a family of Mariner DNA transposons (Tc1 clade). It is 74% identical to Tao1 (491 mismatches: 450 transitions and 0 gaps). This transposon is a fine example of a strong RIP and fast RIP-induced change of the AT content (from 60% in Tao1 to 82% in Mariner1_AO). A transposase-coding ORF is destroyed by many stop-codon introduced by RIP.
