Involvement of estrogen receptor beta in terminal differentiation of mammary gland epithelium.

abstract：:We present a model for transposition that allows a choice between cointegrate formation (replicon fusion) and direct transposition. We propose that initiation of the process occurs by invasion of the target DNA by a single-stranded end of the transposable element. This leads to nicking of one of the DNA strands of the...
