Genes with novel cellular functions may evolve through exon shuffling which can assemble unique protein architectures. Here we show that DNA transposons provide a recurrent supply of materials to assemble protein-coding genes via exon-shuffling. We find that transposase domains have been captured, primarily via alternative splicing, to form fusion proteins at least 94 times independently over ~350 million years of tetrapod evolution. We find an excess of transposase DNA-binding domains fused to host regulatory domains, especially the Krüppel-associated Box (KRAB), and identify four independently evolved KRAB-transposase fusion proteins repressing gene expression in a sequence-specific fashion. The bat-specific KRABINER fusion protein binds its cognate transposons genome-wide and controls a network of genes and cis-regulatory elements. These results illustrate how a transcription factor and its binding sites can emerge. Host-transposase domain fusion generates novel cellular genes, including deeply conserved and lineage specific transcription factors.
