Target sequences for the C. elegans transposable element Tc1.

RESUMO
The target sequences for two independent insertions of the transposable element Tc1 from Caenorhabditis elegans show homology. Because both insertions are at palindromic TA/AT sequences, the exact boundaries of Tc1 cannot be distinguished; Tc1 could be 1610 bp and flanked by a 2-bp duplication of the target site or it could be 1612 bp and without target site duplication. The latter possibility implies a novel manner for insertion of a transposable element.
