Journal ArticleDOI
Repbase Update, a database of eukaryotic repetitive elements
Jerzy Jurka,Vladimir V. Kapitonov,Adam Pavlicek,Paul Klonowski,Oleksiy Kohany,J. Walichiewicz +5 more
TL;DR: Repbase Update is a comprehensive database of repetitive elements from diverse eukaryotic organisms that contains over 3600 annotated sequences representing different families and subfamilies of repeats, many of which are unreported anywhere else.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repbase Update, a database of repetitive elements in eukaryotic genomes
TL;DR: Recent updates of RU are introduced, focusing on technical issues concerning the submission and updating of Repbase entries and will give short examples of using RU data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Annotation, submission and screening of repetitive elements in Repbase: RepbaseSubmitter and Censor
TL;DR: The software tools RepbaseSubmitter and Censor, which are designed to facilitate updating and screening the content of Repbase, are described and made available for use with Repbase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distinct catalytic and non-catalytic roles of ARGONAUTE4 in RNA-directed DNA methylation
TL;DR: AGO4 binds to small RNAs including small interfering RNAs originating from transposable and repetitive elements, and cleaves target RNA transcripts, consistent with a model in which AGO4 can function at target loci through two distinct and separable mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repetitive sequences in complex genomes: structure and evolution.
TL;DR: Remnants of TEs appear to be overrepresented in transcription regulatory modules and other regions conserved among distantly related species, which may have implications for the understanding of their impact on speciation.
