Transposable elements I. What is a transposable element?
... A. Found almost everywhere 1. viruses, bacteria, fungi, plants, animals B. major constituents of genome 1. in flies, ~12% of genome 2. in humans, 2 major classes a. LINEs (long interspersed elements) b. SINEs (short interspersed elements) c. collectively these and others account for ~45% of human ge ...

Tigger/pogo transposons in the Fugu genome
... One theme we will see repeatedly is the role of gene duplication. For a long time we’ve realized that this is the primary raw material for evolution, but it occurs in a remarkable variety of ways: A. Tandem duplications of single genes. B. Duplications to other locations in a genome. C. Duplication ...

... 1. The human genome appears to have only about as many genes as the simple nematode worm, C. elegans. Which of the following best explains how the more complex humans can have relatively few genes? a. Human genes have unusually long introns involved in the regulation of gene expression. b. More than ...

Copy-number variation
Copy-number variations (CNVs)—a form of structural variation—are alterations of the DNA of a genome that results in the cell having an abnormal or, for certain genes, a normal variation in the number of copies of one or more sections of the DNA. CNVs correspond to relatively large regions of the genome that have been deleted (fewer than the normal number) or duplicated (more than the normal number) on certain chromosomes. For example, the chromosome that normally has sections in order as A-B-C-D might instead have sections A-B-C-C-D (a duplication of ""C"") or A-B-D (a deletion of ""C"").This variation accounts for roughly 13% of human genomic DNA and each variation may range from about one kilobase (1,000 nucleotide bases) to several megabases in size. CNVs contrast with single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which affect only one single nucleotide base.
