marY1 is an LTR-retroelement from the homobasidiomycete Tricholoma matsutake. Nucleotide sequences that correspond to the putative U3-R region and the R-U5 region of marY1 are highly conserved in various higher fungi. Data suggest that the LTR sequence of marY1 originated early in the evolution of higher fungi and has become widely distributed. Therefore, it may be useful for the construction of an LTR-mediated transformation system in basidiomycetes.
