A later study revealed a sequence accession (AC005427) containing a clone flanked by LTRs, which was used along with two additional accessions (AJ132547 and X98424) to establish a full-length consensus for ''Circe'', which belongs to ''Osvaldo'' clade ([[Literature:46552|Malik and Eickbush 1999]]). The full-length consensus for ''Circe'' is 7.4 Kb in size including LTRs of 240 nt. The internal region of this element displays a Primer Binding Site (PBS) for a tRNA&lt;sup&gt;Lys3&lt;/sup&gt;, three Open Reading Frames (ORFs) for ''gag'', ''pol'', and ''int'' genes, and a Polypurine Tract (PPT) adjacent to the 3&amp;acute;LTR ([[Literature:44996|Losada, et al. 1999]]).<br /> |structure=Circe.png<br /> |host=Drosophila melanogaster<br /> |hostpic=Drosophila_melanogaster.gif<br /> |literature=*[[Literature:15303|Mobile DNA II.
