MeSH Heading: Short Interspersed Nucleotide Elements
Tree Number(s): G02.111.570.080.708.330.800.800; G05.360.080.708.330.800.800; G05.360.340.024.425.800.800
Unique ID: D020086
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D020086
Scope Note: Highly repeated sequences, 100-300 bases long, which contain RNA polymerase III promoters. The primate Alu (ALU ELEMENTS) and the rodent B1 SINEs are derived from 7SL RNA, the RNA component of the signal recognition particle. Most other SINEs are derived from tRNAs including the MIRs (mammalian-wide interspersed repeats).
Entry Term(s): SINE; SINEs; Short Interspersed DNA Sequence Elements
