BLAT-Based Comparative Analysis for Transposable Elements: BLATCAT
The availability of several whole genome sequences makes comparative analyses possible. In primate genomes, the priority of transposable elements (TEs) is significantly increased because they account for ~45% of the primate genomes, they can regulate the gene expression level, and they are associated with genomic fluidity in their host genomes. Here, we developed the BLAST-like alignment tool (...
متن کاملAnalysis of Transposable Elements in Coccidioides Species
Coccidioides immitis and C. posadasii are primary pathogenic fungi that cause disease in immunologically-normal animals and people. The organism is found exclusively in arid regions of the Southwestern United States, Mexico, and South America, but not in other parts of the world. This study is a detailed analysis of the transposable elements (TE) in Coccidioides spp. As is common in most fungi,...
متن کاملAnalysis of extrachromosomal Ac/Ds transposable elements.
The mechanism of transposition of the maize Ac/Ds elements is not well understood. The true transposition intermediates are not known and it has not been possible to distinguish between excision models involving 8-bp staggered cuts or 1-bp staggered cuts followed by hairpin formation. In this work, we have analyzed extrachromosomal excision products to gain insight into the excision mechanism. ...
متن کاملPoPoolationTE2: Comparative Population Genomics of Transposable Elements Using Pool-Seq
The evolutionary dynamics of transposable elements (TEs) are still poorly understood. One reason is that TE abundance needs to be studied at the population level, but sequencing individuals on a population scale is still too expensive to characterize TE abundance in multiple populations. Although sequencing pools of individuals dramatically reduces sequencing costs, a comparison of TE abundance...
متن کاملTransposable genetic elements.
N atural selection, as Darwin rec ognized more than a centu ry ago, favors individuals and populations that acquire traits con ducive to survival and reproduction. The generation of biological variation, which gives rise to new and potentially advantageous combinations of genetic traits, is therefore a central requirement for the successful evolution of species in diverse and changing enviro...
