DNA transposable elements

Preferred Label : DNA transposable elements;

MeSH definition : Discrete segments of DNA which can excise and reintegrate to another site in the genome. Most are inactive, i.e., have not been found to exist outside the integrated state. DNA transposable elements include bacterial IS (insertion sequence) elements, Tn elements, the maize controlling elements Ac and Ds, Drosophila P, gypsy, and pogo elements, the human Tigger elements and the Tc and mariner elements which are found throughout the animal kingdom.;

MeSH synonym : transposable elements, dna; elements, dna transposable; elements, transposable; element, dna transposable; dna transposable element; transposable element, dna; transposable elements; element, transposable; transposable element;

MeSH hyponym : DNA transposons; insertion sequence elements; tn elements; Element, Tn; Elements, Tn; Tn Element; IS Elements; Element, IS; Elements, IS; IS Element; Elements, Insertion Sequence; Element, Insertion Sequence; Insertion Sequence Element; Sequence Element, Insertion; Sequence Elements, Insertion; DNA Transposon; Transposon, DNA; Transposons, DNA;

Related MeSH term : DNA insertion elements; DNA Insertion Element; Element, DNA Insertion; Elements, DNA Insertion; Insertion Element, DNA; Insertion Elements, DNA;

MeSH annotation : do not use for retrotransposable elements (RETROELEMENTS);
