Young families of RTEX non-LTR retrotransposons from the amphioxus genome.

Abstract:
The 5' terminal portion is missing. The reconstructed RTEX-1_BF consensus sequence contains a C-terminal part of ORF1 and the complete ORF2. The RTEX-1_BF ORF1 protein contains the esterase domain. The 3' terminus is composed of the (CATTGT)n microsatellite.
Derived:
