Retrotransposition of R2 elements in somatic nuclei during the early development of Drosophila

BACKGROUND: R2 retrotransposable elements exclusively insert in the 28S rRNA genes of their host. Their RNA transcripts are produced by self-processing from a 28S R2 cotranscript. Because full-length R2 transcripts are found in most tissues of R2-active animals, we tested whether new R2 insertions o...
