The Antirrhinum DNA transposon Tam3 uniquely demonstrates low temperature-dependent transposition (LTDT), so transposition does not occur at high temperatures. We previously showed that the detainment of Tam3 transposase (TPase) at the plasma membrane occurs when transposition is inactive, and that TPase is released at the permissive state of Tam3 transposition. LTDT of Tam3 is attributed to interactions between Tam3 and its host. In this addendum, we propose a model to explain the LTDT of Tam3, which is regarded as an equilibrium state reached between the host and parasite to maximize the fitness of both.
金鱼草DNA转座子Tam3独特地表现出低温依赖性转座(LTDT),因此在高温下不会发生转座。我们之前表明,当转座不活跃时,Tam3转座酶(TPase)会滞留在质膜上,并且在Tam3转座的允许状态下TPase会被释放。Tam3的LTDT归因于Tam3与其宿主之间的相互作用。在本附录中,我们提出了一个模型来解释Tam3的LTDT,该模型被认为是宿主和寄生物之间达到的一种平衡状态,以最大化两者的适应性。
