Mutator-like transposable elements (MULEs) are a superfamily of DNA [deoxyribonucleic acid] elements found in many eukaryotes and are especially common in plants ... Plant genomes carry large numbers of chimeric MULEs called Pack-MULEs, which contain fragments of genes, suggesting that these elements might constitute an important mechanism of gene evolution in plants ... There is also evidence that gene fragments inside Pack-MULEs are transcribed, and it is possible that these encode functional proteins and/or functional transcripts, for example, antisense transcripts that could influence the expression of their parental genes in the genome. 2, record 1, English, - Pack%2Dmutator%2Dlike%20transposable%20element
