LTR retrotransposon prediction in algae genome of Coccomyxa Sp. C 169, C. Reinhardtii, V. Carter I, E. Siliculosus genome using In Silico analysis
LTR retrotransposon is recognized as a kind of transposable element. A series of research on TEs revealed that those once thought as ”junk DNA” to be functional or at least have effect on the evolution of genome. Using In Silico analysis, researchers successfully predicted LTR retrotransposons in rice grape tree and other advanced plants. Algae take possession of an important position in evolution history. From prokaryote to complex multicellular eudicots, algae genomes deserve a thorough study. In our research, we introduce others work: two LTR retrotransposon prediction biosoftwares LTR_STRUC and LTR_FINDER which utilizing unique structure to define a LTR retroelement, have been introduced into our work to detect potential new LTR retroelements in algae genome. Using this In Silico analysis we attend to investigate the existence and dynamic of full-length LTR retrotransposon in algae.
