Bats with hATs: evidence for recent DNA transposon activity in genus Myotis.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Mar 2007

Ray David A, Pagan Heidi J T, Thompson Michelle L, Stevens Richard D

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements make up a significant fraction of many eukaryotic genomes. Although both classes of transposable elements, the DNA transposons and the retrotransposons, show substantial expansion in plants and invertebrates, the DNA transposons are thought to have become inactive in mammalian genomes long ago. Here, we report the first evidence for recent activity of DNA transposons in a mammalian lineage,...
