Development of Hsmar1 transposon tools for research and biotechnology

DNA transposons are mobile genetic elements that relocate between genomic loci. This relocation is termed transposition and is catalysed by an element-encoded enzyme called transposase. Hsmar1 is a DNA transposon that invaded the primate genome ~50 Mya and was active for ~13 My. Over the last decade...
