The main uses are in preparation of genomic libraries since very large inserts (in the Mbp range) can be integrated. Has also been used in expression studies. Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) are the most commonly used form.

Cleavage of the exposed reactive centre of the serpin triggers an opening of the five-stranded A-sheet of the molecule, with insertion of the cleaved reactive loop as an additional strand in the centre of the sheet.

Most of these repeat sequences are transposable elements, that can replicate and insert a copy in a new location in the genome. The result is the amplification of these repetitive elements over time.

If a transposon inserts itself within another gene, it can prevent the gene from expressing itself. Sometimes the transposon carries a gene which can become activated if it becomes inserted downstream from an active promoter.
