TAHRE, a novel telomeric retrotransposon from Drosophila melanogaster, reveals the origin of Drosophila telomeres
Published in Molecular biology and evolution (01-09-2004)“…Drosophila telomeres do not have typical telomerase repeats. Instead, two families of non-LTR retrotransposons, HeT-A and TART, maintain telomere length by…”

Telomere maintenance in Drosophila: Rapid transposon evolution at chromosome ends
Published in Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.) (15-07-2008)“…The maintenance of terminal sequences is an important role of the telomere, since it prevents the loss of internal regions that encode essential genes. In most…”
