[Characterization of transposon mariner from the Himasthla elongata genome].
A novel transposable element Hemar 1 was identified and characterized in the genome of Himasthla elongata flatworm. This element is a member of mariner family; it belongs to capitata subfamily and highly homologues to turbellarian worm Dugesia tigrina mariner transposon. Hemar 1 is a dispersed repeat and accounts for about 0.01% of H. elongata genome. Identified element Hemar 1 represents useful tool for investigation of functions of the mobile elements in H. elongata genome.
