We screened the genome of a trematode, Clonorchis sinensis, in order to identify novel retrotransposons and thereby provide additional information on retrotransposons for comprehensive phylogenetic study. Considering the vast potential of retrotransposons to generate genetically variable regions among individual genomes, randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) detected by arbitrarily primed...
Massive accumulation of retrotransposons, comprising >40% of human and mouse genomes, is one of the major events in the evolution of the genome. However, most retrotransposons have lost retrotransposition competency, which makes studying their role in genome evolution elusive. Intracisternal A-particle (IAP) elements are long terminal repeat (LTR)-type mouse retrotransposons consisting of full-...
The lack of correlation between genome size and organismal complexity was early on dubbed the “C-value Paradox;” it holds even when gene number is considered instead of overall organismal complexity. The sequencing of large eukaryotic genomes has now conclusively solved this conundrum with the demonstration that most nuclear DNA comprises various classes of repeats, primarily transposable eleme...
A number of abundant mobile genetic elements called retrotransposons reverse transcribe RNA to generate DNA for insertion into eukaryotic genomes. Non-long-terminal repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposons represent a major class of retrotransposons, and transposons that move by target-primed reverse transcription lack LTRs characteristic of retroviruses and retroviral-like transposons. Yeast model sy...
The phylogenetic relationships among thirty-seven new Ty1-copia group retrotransposons in seven angiosperm plants were examined by reverse transcriptase and ribonuclease H sequence analysis. Distribution pattern of the retrotransposons of closely related plant species generally reflects a close phylogenetic relationship. In contrast, we found that several retrotransposon sequences from the same...
LTR retrotransposons may be important contributors to host gene evolution because they contain regulatory and coding signals. In an effort to assess the possible contribution of LTR retrotransposons to C. elegans gene evolution, we searched upstream and downstream of LTR retrotransposon sequences for the presence of predicted genes. Sixty-three percent of LTR retrotransposon sequences (79/124) ...
To gain information on retrotransposons in the genome of Paragonimus westermani, PCR was carried out with degenerate primers, specific to protease and reverse transcriptase (rt) genes of long-terminal-repeat (LTR) retrotransposons. The PCR products were cloned and sequenced, after which 12 different retrotransposon-related sequences were isolated from the trematode genome. These showed various ...
