Abstract: Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences capable of transpositions within the genome and thus exerting a considerable influence on the genome functioning and structure and serving as a source of new genes. TE biodiversity studies… read more here.

Abstract: Spliceosomal introns interrupt nuclear genes and are removed from RNA transcripts ("spliced") by machinery called spliceosomes. Although the vast majority of spliceosomal introns are removed by the so-called major (or "U2") spliceosome, diverse eukaryotes also… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12862-019-1488-y
Abstract: BackgroundTwo spliceosomal intron types co-exist in eukaryotic precursor mRNAs and are excised by distinct U2-dependent and U12-dependent spliceosomes. In the diplomonad Giardia lamblia, small nuclear (sn) RNAs show hybrid characteristics of U2- and U12-dependent spliceosomal… read more here.
