Terminal Repeat Sequences
Delta Elements | Flanking Repeat Sequences | Inverted Terminal Repeat | Long Terminal Repeat | R Repetitive Sequence | Terminal Repeat | Delta Element | Element, Delta | Elements, Delta | Flanking Repeat Sequence | Long Terminal Repeats
Nucleotide sequences repeated on both the 5' and 3' ends of a sequence under consideration. For example, the hallmarks of a transposon are that it is flanked by inverted repeats on each end and the inverted repeats are flanked by direct repeats. The Delta element of Ty retrotransposons and LTRs (long terminal repeats) are examples of this concept. |
