Scope note: Secuencias muy repetidas, de 100-300 bases de largo, que contienen promotores de la ARN polimerasa III. Los ELEMENTOS ALU de los primates y los SINE B1 de roedores derivan del ARN 7SL, el componente de ARN de la partícula de reconocimiento de señales. La mayoría de los otros SINE derivan de ARNt que incluyen repeticiones ampliamente diseminadas de mamíferos (MIR).

Scope note: Highly repeated sequences, 100-300 bases long, which contain RNA polymerase III promoters. The primate Alu (ALU ELEMENTS) and the rodent B1 SINEs are derived from 7SL RNA, the RNA component of the signal recognition particle. Most other SINEs are derived from tRNAs including the MIRs (mammalian-wide interspersed repeats).
