DNA databases unite to create a fully open resource for transposable element research

For more than three decades, researchers studying genomes have relied on foundational resources such as Repbase and, more recently, Dfam to identify and classify transposable elements—the mobile DNA sequences that shape genome structure, evolution and function. Now, Dfam and Repbase are coming together under a single, fully open framework.
