Title:
Merlin1m_CE, a nonautonomous family of Merlin/IS1016-like DNA transposons from the the nematode C. elegans

Repbase Reports 3:(5) p. 95 (2003)
Abstract:
Merlin1m_CE contains a short stretch of coding sequences (41 aa, VEIDESLFSKRKNNSGRILPQLWIFGGICRETGEFFLTEVD) with 46% identity (60% similarity) to the Merlin1_CB transposase (from nematode C. briggsae). Merlin1m_CE TIRs are very similar to those of elements from the PAL8C families. Presumably, PAL8C_1-PAL8C_5 belong also to the Merlin group of DNA transposons.
