Helitrons on a roll: eukaryotic rolling-circle transposons.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Oct 2007

Kapitonov Vladimir V, Jurka Jerzy

Abstract excerpt

Rolling-circle eukaryotic transposons, known as Helitron transposons, were first discovered in plants (Arabidopsis thaliana and Oryza sativa) and in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. To date, Helitrons have been identified in a diverse range of species, from protists to mammals. They represent...
