Identification of multiple binding sites for the THAP domain of the Galileo transposase in the long terminal inverted-repeats (2013)
Journal Article
Marzo, M., Liu, D., Ruiz, A., & Chalmers, R. (2013). Identification of multiple binding sites for the THAP domain of the Galileo transposase in the long terminal inverted-repeats. Gene, 525(1), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gene.2013.04.050

Galileo is a DNA transposon responsible for the generation of several chromosomal inversions in Drosophila. In contrast to other members of the P-element superfamily, it has unusually long terminal inverted-repeats (TIRs) that resemble those of Foldb...

Hsmar1 transposition is sensitive to the topology of the transposon donor and the target (2013)
Journal Article
Claeys Bouuaert, C., & Chalmers, R. (2013). Hsmar1 transposition is sensitive to the topology of the transposon donor and the target. PLoS ONE, 8(1), Article 0053690. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0053690

Hsmar1 is a member of the Tc1-mariner superfamily of DNA transposons. These elements mobilize within the genome of their host by a cut-and-paste mechanism. We have exploited the in vitro reaction provided by Hsmar1 to investigate the effect of DNA su...
