Abstract:
VANDAL20 is a fossil of a MuDR-like autonomous DNA transposon. It has been active transpositionally relatively recently; its exon/intron structure is well preserved, and it is flanked by a perfect 9-bp target site duplication (TTAATTAAG). VANDAL20 has imperfect subterminal 52-bp inverted repeats (8 mismatches, positions 17-68 and 12704-12653). A 8790aa MuDR-like transposase, VANDAL20p1, is encoded by 4 exons (predicted by FGENESH and GENSCAN). CDS join(610..616,709..2656,2811..3405,3479..3568) VANDAL20p1: MEVDDIVVVQAGRWILYSTGEWEFKLDSCRHGRAMSLMGLRTLRDLELKVRHIFGLEKPS ISLELSYIFEDRLALLAGVLPGPTMIGSDWQFRCFKSLSIGDKSVNLFVCFREGDSVIVG PACEPRQTSASVVKYFEAGEPTFAGIVQFRDKPVPAVGGGYFAGLLSSVQDNMDAHPPNN HSDFVQSTTVCDLSSQWDISDELLLEALEAVEKSGAFVTAAGVDTSLPAEVPDSGDDSES LAESDESSSLSTGSDLEVSEFDDDTLHENTLQSDKEIVVHEDIGDDDFIEQPPKKKVLLQ NTNPGAMTEFLETCQKGISIDQVYGYEDLEPMFGDDDIDAKAAYVDLTKEDDNMFVGRTF ASREDFRIALSIYAINRIFRFKFTRYEKHYLVAECYDKKNCDWRVRAHQVGGDSEEYEVR LAKLEHVCKVQTRSRFSKHATSKVVAALLRAKYAKAFCGPRARDLPDSLLREHNVRMTYW KCWKAKELAVETAQGTDESSFSLLPVYLHVLQLANPGTVYHLETELDDIGDDRFKYVFLS LGASVKRLKYIRRVVVVDGTHLFGKYLGCLLTASCQDANFQIFPIAFAVVDSETDHSWTW FMNKLSEIIKDGPDLTFVSDRNQSIFKSVGLVFPQAHHGACLVHIRRNVKGRVHFTGERY NLMSSNIAESLNNALLPARGSPVVALLEFIRKMLARWFESRRKKISRTVGDIPIAVEREL MKRFKGALGMSVSAVGSWDFEVVAKDGEQFHVSLEQQSCSCLEFQAIRIPCTHAMAACHD RGLEFRTLVGEMHRLPMWSPTVQAPILLVRDPSEVKVPEEIRSLCLMPPKTKRPAGRPPK LRIHSVGEYEGNNKSKTPNKGGRCGGLGHNRVTCKTPLG A ~224-aa protein of unknown function is encoded by one or two exons in a region 4794-5464.

These proteases are functional elements of VANDALs that help them to multiply.
