Abstract:
This is a young family of nonautonomous P DNA transposons identified in the Trichomonas vaginalis genome. The consensus was derived from multiple alignment of 10 copies of P-2N1_TV, which are less than ~1% divergent from each other. P-2N1_TV is a nonautonomous DNA transposon transposed by the transposase encoded by the autonomous P-2_TV. This nonautonomous transposon is characterized by 8-bp TSDs and imperfect 22-bp TIRs (2 mismatches).
