A variant Tc4 transposable element in the nematode C. elegans could encode a novel protein.

Nucleic acids research - 11 Jan 1993

Li W, Shaw J E

Abstract excerpt

A variant C. elegans Tc4 transposable element, Tc4-rh1030, has been sequenced and is 3483 bp long. The Tc4 element that had been analyzed previously is 1605 bp long, consists of two 774-bp nearly perfect inverted terminal repeats connected by a 57-bp loop, and lacks significant open reading frame...
