Tel-1 transposon-like elements of Tetrahymena thermophila are associated with micronuclear genome rearrangements.

Genetics - 1 Sept 1991

Wyman C, Blackburn E H

Abstract excerpt

The micronuclear genome of Tetrahymena thermophila contains Tel-1 elements that structurally resemble transposons. Here we present molecular evidence that Tel-1 transposon-like elements are mobile. The arrangements of Tel-1 elements in the micronuclear genomes of several T. thermophila strains and cell lines were assayed by Southern blotting. The molecular evidence for Tel-1 transposition is most striking in...
