Human SETMAR is a DNA sequence-specific histone-methylase with a broad effect on the transcriptome (2018)
Journal Article

Transposons impart dynamism to the genomes they inhabit and their movements frequently rewire the control of nearby genes. Occasionally, their proteins are domesticated when they evolve a new function. SETMAR is a protein methylase with a sequence-sp...

Transposase subunit architecture and its relationship to genome size and the rate of transposition in prokaryotes and eukaryotes (2018)
Journal Article

Cut-and-paste transposons are important tools for mutagenesis, gene-delivery and DNA sequencing applications. At the molecular level, the most thoroughly understood are Tn5 and Tn10 in bacteria, and mariner and hAT elements in eukaryotes. All bacteri...
