Activity of the mammalian DNA transposon piggyBat from Myotis lucifugus is restricted by its own transposon ends

Abstract Members of the piggyBac superfamily of DNA transposons are widely distributed in host genomes ranging from insects to mammals. The human genome has retained five piggyBac-derived genes as domesticated elements although they are no longer mobile. Here, we have investigated the transposition...
