A unique cluster of roo insertions in the promoter region of a stress response gene in Drosophila melanogaster

Abstract Transposable elements (TEs) are not randomly distributed in the genome. A genome-wide analysis of the D. melanogaster genome found that differences in TE density across 50 kb genomic regions was due both to transposition and duplication. At smaller genomic scales, promoter regions of hsp ge...
