Mutator and MULE Transposons.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Apr 2015

Lisch Damon

Abstract excerpt

The Mutator system of transposable elements (TEs) is a highly mutagenic family of transposons in maize. Because they transpose at high rates and target genic regions, these transposons can rapidly generate large numbers of new mutants, which has made the Mutator system a favored tool for both forward and reverse mutagenesis in maize. Low copy number versions of this system have also proved to be excellent models...
