Abstract:
Chapaev-3A_HM is a very young subfamily of Chapaev-3_HM DNA transposons that was active in the hydra genome less than a few million years ago (copies are ~1% divergent from their consensus sequence). The consensus sequence was obtained based on a multiple alignment of 10 copies; it codes for a 938-aa Chapaev transposase (11 exons). Chapaev-3A_HM is characterized by 4-bp target site duplications, 10-bp terminal inverted repeats, and 22-bp subterminal inverted repeats (separated by 17- and 7-bp regions from the 5' and 3' TIRs, respectively).
