A MITE insertion into the 3′-UTR regulates the transcription of TaHSP16.9 in common wheat

Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are a type of DNA transposon frequently inserted into promoters, untranslated regions (UTR), introns, or coding sequences of genes. We found a 276-bp tourist-like MITE insertion in the 3′-UTR of a 16.9 kDa small heat shock protein gene (TaHSP16...
