Abstract excerpt
The retrotransposon Ty4 is found in different yeast strains at only one to three copies per haploid genome. In the present study, we aimed at relating the apparent low transpositional activity of Ty4 to transcriptional features of this element. RT-PCR revealed that Ty4 is transcribed at a very low level, being comparable with that of GAL4. Contrary to other Ty elements, the transcriptional rate of Ty4 is not...
