Term piggyBac activity ID (Ontology) FBcv:0000502 (FlyBase CV)
Definition Mutation induced by the transposable activity caused by piggyBac, a DNA transposable element. The piggyBac is 2.5 kilobases in length with 13 base pairs inverted terminal repeats. It specifically targets TTAA dinucleotides and generates a flanking duplication of these 4 base pairs upon insertion. Mobilization is induced by the activity of the piggyBac transposase.[ FlyBase:FBrf0202435 ]
