Inverted repeat

Inverted repeats are commonly found in
The DNA to which transcription factors bind.
The DNA sequence shown above is that of the glucocorticoid response element where n represents any nucleotide. [Discussion] ...

Inverted repeat (IR)
Nucleotide with opposite orientation of the base sequence and mostly below 50 base pairs. IRs are components of IS elements.

Inverted repeats
A DNA or RNA sequence where the sequence of nucleotides along one a strand of DNA is repeated in the opposite physical direction along the other strand; inverted repeats are commonly separated by a tract of non-repeated DNA.

Inverted Repeats: Two copies of the same or related sequence of DNA repeated in opposite orientation on the same molecule (contrast with Direct Repeats). Adjacent inverted repeats constitute a palindrome.

The transposon is flanked by a 23 bp inverted repeat and has been shown to insert preferentially into GC-rich targets.

Inverted repeat pairs #1 and #2 are essential. The 8 bp spacer is the target for staggered endonucleolytic cuts.
The spacer length is important, though the addition of 10bp is tolerated.

Other termination mechanisms include where RNAP comes across a region with repetitious thymidine residues in the DNA template. or where a GC-rich inverted repeat followed by 4 A residues.

A general term for any genetic unit that can insert into a chromosome, exit, and relocate; includes insertion sequences, transposons, some bacteriophages, and controlling element. A region of the genome, flanked by inverted repeats, ...

The transposase gene is flanked on either side by fifteen to twenty-five base pairs, arranged as "inverted repeats." A composite transposon is composed of any gene sandwiched between two IS sequences; this entire unit will move.
