Scope note: Secuencias nucleotídicas repetidas tanto en los extremos 5' como 3' de una secuencia dada. Por ejemplo, lo que distingue al transposón es que está flanqueado por repeticiones invertidas en cada extremo y que las repeticiones invertidas están flanqueadas por repeticiones directas. El elemento delta de los retrotransposones Ty y las RTL (repeticiones terminales largas) son ejemplos de este concepto.

Scope note: Nucleotide sequences repeated on both the 5' and 3' ends of a sequence under consideration. For example, the hallmarks of a transposon are that it is flanked by inverted repeats on each end and the inverted repeats are flanked by direct repeats. The Delta element of Ty retrotransposons and LTRs (long terminal repeats) are examples of this concept.
