The Tc1/mariner transposable element family shapes genetic variation and gene expression in the protist Trichomonas vaginalis

BACKGROUND: Trichomonas vaginalis is the most prevalent non-viral sexually transmitted parasite. Although the protist is presumed to reproduce asexually, 60% of its haploid genome contains transposable elements (TEs), known contributors to genome variability. The availability of a draft genome seque...
