Abstract:
Crack-1_IS is a non-LTR retrotransposon that belongs to the Crack clade, a sister clade of L2 and Daphne. Like in other Crack retrotransposons, the ORF1 protein in Crack-1_IS contains a domain similar to the central domain conserved in vertebrate L1 ORF1 protein The ORF1 protein contains also in its N-terminal part the PHD finger (C4HC3), which is probably typical to Cracks in arthropoda.
