Molecular characterization ofVulmar1, a completemarinertransposon of sugar beet and diversity ofmariner- andEn/Spm-like sequences in the genusBeta

Abstract: Transposons of the Tc1-mariner superfamily are widespread in eukaryotic genomes. We have isolated the mariner element Vulmar1 from Beta vulgaris L., which is 3909 bp long and bordered by perfect terminal inverted repeats of 32 bp with homology to terminal inverted repeats of transposons from soybean and rice. According to a characteristic amino acid signature, Vulmar1 can be assigned to the DD39D group of mariner transposons. Vulmar1 is flanked by a 5'-TA-3' target site duplication that is typical for mariner … Show more

“…The majority of transposable elements from the translocation are copia-and gypsy-like retroelements (Table 4). For the B. vulgaris chromosomes, a dispersed distribution of these elements over all chromosomes was observed Heslop-Harrison et al 1997), except the centromeric regions and the nucleus-organization-regions (NOR) whereas Vulmar1 and Promar52 mariner-like transposons were clustered within euchromatin and within putatively gene-rich regions at the end of the chromosomes (Jacobs et al 2004).…”

“…They included sequences for a putative Mutator-like transposase, a helitron4-element and a hAT superfamily element. Two transposons from BAC123 belong to the TC1/mariner superfamily Vulmar1 and Promar52 which were described by Jacobs et al (2004).…”

“…Among the transposons, the Mariner elements constitute a superfamily of widespread elements and have been observed in several groups of organisms (Langin et al, 1995;Augé-Gouillou et al, 1995;Plasterk et al, 1999;Feschotte & Wessler, 2002;Jacobs et al, 2004;Sinzelle et al, 2006). Mariner elements are approximately 1,300 bp long and are flanked by a terminal inverted repeat (TIR) of 28-32 bp; the element consists of a single intron-less gene that encodes for the transposase, which is responsible for the transposition mechanism, including excision, transfer and DNA strand repair (Lampe et al, 1996;Wicker et al, 2007).…”

“…The large-scale genomic organization of the sugar beet genome has been well studied and numerous dispersed and tandemly repeated sequences have been localized along chromosomes (Schmidt et al 1995;Kubis et al 1998;Dechyeva et al 2003;Jacobs et al 2004;Dechyeva and Schmidt 2006;Menzel et al 2006).…”
