线虫秀丽隐杆线虫中的TC1转座元素以高频进行切除。这种切除主要发生在生物体的体细胞组织中。通过证明TC1元素在遗传上稳定来证明缺乏种系切除。在连续的,非选择性传播的一年中,特定基因组部位的元素以及基因组中的总体数量稳定。通过证明在同步种群的单一生长中出现空的TC1位点,可以证明体细胞切除,并且未经下一代遗传。 TC1元素的切除可能在组织特异性因素的控制之下。
Tc1 transposable elements in the nematode C. elegans undergo excision at high frequency. This excision occurs primarily or entirely in the somatic tissues of the organism. Absence of germ-line excision is demonstrated by showing that Tc1 elements are genetically stable; elements at particular genomic sites, as well as the overall number of elements in the genome, were stably maintained during a year of continuous, nonselective propagation. Somatic excision is demonstrated by showing that empty Tc1 sites arise during a single generation of growth of a synchronous population and are not inherited by the next generation. Excision of Tc1 elements probably is under the control of tissue-specific factors.
