Abstract
Transposable elements with short terminal inverted repeats are believed to transpose directly from DNA to DNA via excision and integration. The cis/trans requirements for transposition have recently been characterized for some of these elements. Common features seem to emerge for the mechanisms of excision of these elements, with the mechanisms apparently similar for the different elements.
