Use of bioinformatics to investigate and analyze transposable element insertions in the genomes of caenorhabditis elegans and drosophila melanogaster, and into the target plasmid pGDV1

Transposable elements (TEs) are utilized for the creation of a wide range of transgenic organisms. However, in some systems, this technique is not very efficient due to low transposition frequencies and integration into unstable or transcriptionally inactive genomic regions. One approach to ameliora...
