Abstract:
This is a consensus sequence of a family of non-autonomous Helitron transposons transposed in the Drosophila virilis genome a few million years ago (numerous copies are less than 5% divergent from the consensus sequence). Helitron-2N1_DVir is a deletion derivative of the autonomous Helitron-2_DVir. These transposons are usually inserted in the TTT|TTT target sites without the target site duplications (the insertion site is marked by "|"). Different families of Helitrons constitute ~5% of the D. virilis genome.
