MER115 (DF0000780)
hAT-Charlie DNA transposon, MER115 subfamily (non-autonomous)
Description
A brief description of the entry. Suggestions for modification to this description can be submitted using the adjacent pencil icon.
MER115 has imperfect 14 bp TIRs, and 8 bp TSDs. Its terminal regions (roughly pos. 1-67 and 535-693) derive from Zaphod, on which it probably depended on for transposition. Note that MER stands for MEdium Reiteration frequency interspersed repeat. As such, MERs as a group are a grab bag of DNA transposons and retrotransposons.

Hit Statistics
Number of matches to this model that meet the "Gathering" threshold and more stringent "Trusted" threshold. For each threshold, two numbers are shown: (1) the number of matches to this model after removing redundant hits to other models ("non-redundant"), and (2) the total number of matches above threshold, including those with better scoring matches to other models ("all hits").
The model is 693 positions long. The average length of non-redundant hits to the model is 337.1. This table shows the number of hits above score thresholds:
| Species | Gathering | Trusted | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| non-redundant | all hits | non-redundant | all hits | |
| Mus musculus | 798 | 995 | 535 | 635 |
| Homo sapiens | 2127 | 3532 | 1889 | 2807 |
