The small ring derivative ofSaccharomyces cerevisiaechromosome III, which was formed by a cross-over betweenHMLon the left arm andHMRon the right arm, contains three Ty elements. The class II element Ty 1-17 lies immediately centromere-distal toLEU2on the left arm while two class I elements are tandemly arranged distal toPGKon the right arm. We have sequenced the regions of chromosome III surrounding Ty 1-17 and have defined a region where a number of transposition events have occurred. This region is flanked by the 5' ends of two tRNA genes, tRNA3Glu on the centromere distal side and tRNA3Leu immediately in front ofLEU2. Close to the tRNA3Glu gene there is a region containing degenerate delta sequences organised in opposite orientations. Immediately distal to Ty 1-17 there are two complete solo delta elements, one inserted into the other. The sequence indicates that these two delta sequences were inserted into chromosome III by separate transposition events. A model is presented to explain how this structure arose and the role of solo delta elements in transposon propagation and maintenance is discussed.
