Title:
NeSL, a spliced leader RNA gene-specific non-LTR retrotransposon family from nematodes.

Abstract:
A defective copy followed by a spliced leader gene starting with TTGAAA. It indicates that this copy is inserted at the same site as NeSL-1 from C. elegans. Accession: CAAC03003740 1-3562. The spliced leader exon-specific non-LTR retrotransposon family, NeSL, was reported from Caenorhabditis elegans [1]. Here we report NeSL elements from six other Caenorhabditis species: C. angaria, C. brenneri, C. briggsae, C. japonica, C. remanei and C. sp. 11 MAF-2010. The target sites are the same among the NeSL elements whose termini were determined, with the exception of NeSL-3_CBre, which targets a putative transposon (TE-1_CBre) including a part of spliced leader sequence.
