Analysis of the DNA sequences of these clones plus the original pSTL70 clone revealed that pSTL70 contains part of the open reading frame for a probable homologue of an osmosensing histidine kinase gene from yeast. The remaining portion of the clone contained a partial reverse transcriptase gene sequence and a 29 base pair direct repeat, which could mean that the clone is a transposable element. Methods for converting transposable elements into improved DNA fingerprinting techniques are discussed ER -
