Vídeo sobre transposones
Transposable elements, which are found in virtually all cells, are segments of DNA that can move from one location in the genome to a target sequence in another.
00:00:13
A simple type of transposable element called an insertion sequence or IS element is only 700 to 1500 base pairs long and consists of two basic parts,
00:00:23
a coding region for an enzyme called transposase, and two short inverted repeat flanking sequences.
00:00:34
The cellular machinery transcribes the transposase coding region
00:00:42
and translates it into the transposase enzyme.
00:00:47
Transposase catalyzes the transposition process.
00:00:50
The transposase randomly selects one of many possible target sequences
00:00:55
where it will move the insertion element.
00:00:59
The IS element, depending on the particular type,
00:01:02
may enter the target sequence by one of two general mechanisms.
00:01:05
replicative transposition or non-replicative transposition.
00:01:09
In replicative transposition, transposase nicks the transposable element
00:01:14
and the nick dens attack the target sequence, making a staggered cut in the target DNA.
00:01:19
DNA polymerase fills in the large gaps and DNA ligase seals the remaining nicks.
00:01:25
A recombination event resolves the two molecules.
00:01:32
As a result of replicative transposition, the cell has a copy of the transposable element, flanked by duplicated target sequences.
00:01:35
Non-replicative transposition is sometimes called cut-and-paste replication.
00:01:45
In this process, transposase brings inverted repeats and flanking DNA together.
00:01:50
One phosphodiester bond is cleaved on each strand at opposite ends of the IS element, yielding free 3' OH groups.
00:01:56
Each 3' OH end attacks the other strand of the double helix, creating a new bond that results in hairpin structures.
00:02:05
Host carrier DNA is ejected and the hairpins on the IS element are re-nicked and attack target DNA.
00:02:14
From the 3' hydroxyl groups, the cell's DNA polymerase molecules fill in the gaps and DNA ligase seals the remaining nicks.
00:02:30
In this way, the element jumps from one DNA molecule to another.
00:02:39
To summarize, in non-replicative transposition, the transposable element is cut and pasted from one DNA molecule to another.
00:02:44
In replicative transposition, the transposable element is copied to yield two transposable elements,
00:02:53
one in the original position and one in the target DNA.

Thank you.
