CACTA_TIR_transposon
This terminal inverted repeat of the CACTA family generate 3-bp target site duplication (TSD) upon insertion. CACTA elements do not have a significant preference for genic region insertions. This terminal inverted repeat (TIR) transposon superfamily is named CACTA because their terminal sequences are 'CACTA/G…C/TAGTG'.
