RT_DIRS1: Reverse transcriptases (RTs) occurring in the DIRS1 group of retransposons. Members of the subfamily include the Dictyostelium DIRS-1, Volvox carteri kangaroo, and Panagrellus redivivus PAT elements. These elements differ from LTR and conventional non-LTR retrotransposons. They contain split direct repeat (SDR) termini, and have been proposed to integrate via double-stranded closed-circle DNA intermediates assisted by an encoded recombinase which is similar to gamma-site-specific integrase.
