Computational prediction and molecular confirmation of Helitron transposons in the maize genome

BACKGROUND: Helitrons represent a new class of transposable elements recently uncovered in plants and animals. One remarkable feature of Helitrons is their ability to capture gene sequences, which makes them of considerable potential evolutionary importance. However, because Helitrons lack the typic...
