Transposable elements controlling genetic instabilities in mammals.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Whitney J B, Lamoreux M L

Abstract excerpt

It is proposed that the instabilities in gene action of some alleles at certain loci in the mouse (e.g., a, c, H-2 Mi, p, pe, T, Va, W), which do not seem to conform to traditional hypotheses of gene action, are better interpretable in the light of modern studies of transposable DNA elements (insertion sequences and transposons of prokaryotic organisms; controlling elements of maize; transposable controlling...
