New foldback transposable element TFB1 found in histone genes of the midge Chironomus thummi.

Journal of molecular biology - 20 Oct 1990

Hankeln T, Schmidt E R

Abstract excerpt

A new Foldback transposable element (TFB1) has been found in the histone H1-H3 intergenic region in the midge Chironomus thummi thummi. TFB1 has long terminal inverted repeats, composed of short, degenerate subrepeats and is flanked by nine or ten base-pair "target site" duplications. TFB1 is present in at least two adjacent histone gene units in Ch. th. thummi, indicating a homogenization of histone gene...
