DNA transposons mediate duplications via transposition-independent and -dependent mechanisms in metazoans

DNA transposons mediate duplications via transposition-independent and -dependent mechanisms in metazoans

Transposons are accepted as evolutionary catalysts but how they do so remains less clear. Analyzing 100 animal genomes finds that terminal inverted repeat-type transposable elements catalyze new gene structures and new genes in animals via both transposition-independent and -dependent mechanisms.
