Abstract:
MuDR-6_VV (Mutavine-6 in [1]) consensus is an autonomous element. Its individual copies are >90% identical to the consensus sequence MuDR-6_VV does not contain TIRs, but is flanked 9 bp-long TSDs. Note that there are computational protein predictions for the transposases of few individual copies (proteins stored at NCBI), but the length of the proteins as well as splicing sites are not always consistent. Although some copies are theoretically able to produce a transposase protein with conserved domains characteristic for Mutators, it is still questionable whether true autonomous copies exist in the genome.
