SLACS retrotransposon from Trypanosoma brucei gambiense is similar to mammalian LINEs.

We have characterized a retrotransposon in Trypanosoma brucei gambiense uniquely associated with the spliced-leader (SL) RNA gene cluster (Spliced Leader Associated Conserved Sequence, SLACS). There are nine copies of SLACS and DNA sequence analysis of one shows the hallmarks of Line-1 like elements...
