Title:
DNA13TA1_DR, an ancient family of nonautonomous DNA transposons from zebrafish.
Journal:
Repbase Reports 2:(6) p. 3 (2002)
Abstract:
This element is characterized by 13-bp terminal inverted repeats and the TA targets site duplications. Its classification is not certain yet, although it is expected to be a member of the Mariner/Tc1 superfamily. There are several hundred copies of DNA13TA1_DR present in the zebrafish genome; they are ~95% identical with the consensus sequence. DNA13TA1a_DR is a young subfamily of the old DNA13TA1_DR family. Their consensus sequences are 92% identical with each other. Interestingly, the 13-bp TIR in the DNA13TA1a_DR consensus sequence has one mismatch (C at position 3). However, the DNA13TA1_DR consensus sequence has the perfect TIR. Presumably, one of the ancient DNA13TA1_DR genomic copies served as a master copy that started the DNA13TA1a_DR family. Unclassified version of DNA13TA1a_DR was identified as Dr000073 [1].
