5kb fragment containing Dmau\mariner\T sequence flanked by approximately 3.5kb of D.simulans sequences and 0.2kb of D.simulans downstream sequences.
Encodes a functional transposase.
Used as source of transposase in demonstrating capability of Dmau\mariner to stably integrate into the zebrafish genome.
Dmau\mariner\TMos1 can function as a transposase in the genome of D.melanogaster, promoting excision of the Dmau\mariner element from w::Dmau\wpch.tGa. The overall rates of Dmau\mariner excision are approximately sixfold greater than the rates in comparable strains of D.simulans. The Dmau\mariner element containing Dmau\mariner\TMos1 spontaneously integrated into the germline of D.melanogaster at high efficiency when injected into the pole plasm of D.melanogaster embryos.
Dmau\mariner\TMos1 functions as an autonomous Dmau\mariner element in D.simulans.
Insertions into D.melanogaster (strain M3) and D.simulans (strain OX-2) are tested for transposase activity.
Carried in plasmid "pMos1" and transfected into the human parasite Leishmania major.
