A novel SINE family occurs frequently in both genomic DNA and transcribed sequences in ixodid ticks of the arthropod sub-phylum Chelicerata

Reassociation kinetics and flow cytometry data indicate that ixodid tick genomes are large, relative to most arthropods, containing ≥ 109 base pairs. The molecular basis for this is unknown. We have identified a novel small interspersed element with features of a tRNA-derived SINE, designated Ruka,...
