Subtraction by addition: domesticated transposases in programmed DNA elimination.

Jason A Motl1, Douglas L Chalker.   

Abstract

The ciliate Paramecium tetraurelia must eliminate approximately 60,000 short sequences from its genome to generate uninterrupted coding sequences in its somatic macronucleus. In this issue of Genes & Development, Baudry and colleagues (pp. 2478-2483) identify the protein that excises these noncoding sequences: a domesticated piggyBac transposase that has been adapted to remove what are likely the remnants of transposon insertions. This new study reveals how addition of a transposase to small RNA-directed silencing machinery can guide major genome reorganization.
