Table 1 Muta1 integration in yeast

From: Functional characterization of the active Mutator-like transposable element, Muta1 from the mosquito Aedes aegypti

Assay

Frequency

Muta1His integrationa

 ade2+ excisant

2.44 × 10−5 Ade+ cells/total cells

 His+ 5-FOAR excisant

2.71 × 10−6 His+ 5FOAR cells/total cells

 

ratio of reintegration = 11%

Muta1His integrationb

 ade2+ excisant

300 colonies

 His+ 5-FOAR excisant

41 colonies

 

ratio of reintegration = 14%

  1. aMeasured by selection for presence of Muta1His and absence of plasmid following excision from ADE2
  2. bMeasured by analysis of independent Ade+ revertants to maintain Muta1His but lacking plasmid
