Transposon Excision from an Atypical Site: A Mechanism of Evolution of Novel Transposable Elements

The role of transposable elements in sculpting the genome is well appreciated but remains poorly understood. Some organisms, such as humans, do not have active transposons; however, transposable elements were presumably active in their ancestral genomes. Of specific interest is whether the DNA surro...
