Spatial configuration of transposable element Ac termini affects their ability to induce chromosomal breakage in maize.

The Plant cell - 1 Mar 2010

Yu Chuanhe, Zhang Jianbo, Pulletikurti Vinay, Weber David F, Peterson Thomas

Abstract excerpt

Composite or closely linked maize (Zea mays) Ac/Ds transposable elements can induce chromosome breakage, but the precise configurations of Ac/Ds elements that can lead to chromosome breakage are not completely defined. Here, we determined the structures and chromosome breakage properties of 15 maize p1 alleles: each allele contains a fixed fractured Ac (fAc) element and a closely linked full-length Ac at various...
