Cryptons: a group of tyrosine-recombinase-encoding DNA transposons from pathogenic fungi

1 Nov 2003

Abstract excerpt

A new group of transposable elements, which the authors have named cryptons, was detected in several pathogenic fungi, including the basidiomycete Cryptococcus neoformans, and the ascomycetes Coccidioides posadasii and Histoplasma capsulatum. These elements are unlike any previously described transposons. An archetypal member of the group, crypton Cn1, is 4 kb in length and is present at a low but variable copy...
