Drosophila has been studied as a biological model for many years and many discoveries in
biology rely on this species. Research on transposable elements (TEs) is not an exception …

The ribosome is a molecular machine which evolved to translate RNA messages faithfully
and efficiently into a protein product. However, the demands of speed and accuracy conffict …

Aging and neurodegenerative disease are characterized by genomic instability in neurons,
including aberrant activation and mobilization of transposable elements (TEs). Integrating …

A wide variety of biological experiments rely on the ability to express an exogenous gene in
a transgenic animal at a defined level and in a spatially and temporally controlled pattern …

R2 is a non-LTR retrotransposable element that inserts at a specific site in the 28s rRNA
genes of most insects. We have expressed the open reading frame of the R2 element from …

Four consensus sequences are conserved with the same linear arrangement in RNA‐
dependent DNA polymerases encoded by retroid elements and in RNA‐dependent RNA …

The genomic RNA of the coronavirus IBV contains an efficient ribosomal frameshifting signal
at the junction of two overlapping open reading frames. We have defined by deletion …

Transposable elements (TEs) are interspersed repeat sequences that make up much of the
human genome. Their expression has been implicated in development and disease …

The gag-pol protein of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), the precursor to the enzymes responsible
for reverse transcription and integration, is expressed from two genes that lie in different …

Expression of the yellow (y) gene of Drosophila melanogaster is controlled by a series of
tissue-specific transcriptional enhancers located in the 5'region and intron of the gene …
