RepeatModeler2: automated genomic discovery of transposable element families (2019, background): “In particular, MITEs (miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements) can be challenging because they are typically non-coding and may be highly diverged in sequence from from their parental DNA:TIR element (Feschotte et al. 2002; Han and Wessler 2010).”
Repbase Update, a database of eukaryotic repetitive elements (2005, background): “Apart from its role in a routine screening and specific applications reviewed above (see also Jurka, 2000), RU serves as a major reference in systematics and evolutionary studies of TEs (Feschotte et al., 2002; Robertson, 2002; Mager and Medstrand, 2003).”
RepeatModeler2 for automated genomic discovery of transposable element families (2020, background): “For example, short, noncoding DNA-TIR elements, often called MITEs (miniature inverted-repeat TEs), may be difficult to build because of their short length and sometimes palindromic nature (44, 45).”
Bacterial insertion sequences: their genomic impact and diversity (2014, background): “IS630-related MITEs were also the first described bacterial examples (Correia et al., 1988; Oggioni & Claverys, 1999; Buisine et al., 2002).”
