It is assumed that they play one of their key roles in adaptive and evolutionary processes. One of the most studied groups of DNA transposons is the infraclass <italic>ITm</italic>, and in particular the superfamily <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic>. In this work, we considered the representation, structure, and evolution of <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> DNA transposons in the jellyfish <italic>Aurelia aurita.</italic> It was found that the predominant proportion of <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> elements of the jellyfish is represented by the <italic>TLE</italic> family. A new subfamily of <italic>TLE</italic> elements called <italic>Aurum</italic> has been identified. In addition, two groups of elements <italic>VS-aura</italic> and <italic>VS-beplau</italic> were found in the <italic>Visitor</italic> family, which are probably also separate subfamilies. Analysis of the structure and diversity of <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> elements showed that at the moment <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> transposons in the jellyfish genome are at the stage of degradation and elimination. Almost all elements are deleted or have structural changes, and, accordingly, do not have potentially functional copies.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p id="idm45181323965312">Мобильные генетические элементы – ДНК-транспозоны и ретротранспозоны – это последовательности ДНК, способные к перемещениям внутри генома. Предполагается, что они играют одну их ключевых ролей в адаптивных и эволюционных процессах. Одной из наиболее изученных групп ДНК-транспозонов является инфракласс <italic>ITm</italic> и, в частности, суперсемейство <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner.</italic> В настоящей работе мы рассмотрели представленность, структуру и эволюцию ДНК-транспозонов <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> ушастой медузы <italic>Aurelia aurita.</italic> Было установлено, что преобладающая доля элементов <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> медузы представлена семейством <italic>TLE.</italic> Выявлено новое подсемейство элементов <italic>TLE</italic>, названное <italic>Aurum</italic>. Кроме того, в семействе <italic>Visitor</italic> обнаружены две группы элементов <italic>VS-aura</italic> и <italic>VS-beplau</italic>, которые, вероятно, также являются отдельными подсемействами. Анализ структуры и разнообразия элементов <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> показал, что в настоящий момент транспозоны <italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic> в геноме медузы находятся на стадии деградации и элиминации. Практически все элементы делетированы или имеют структурные изменения и соответственно не имеют потенциально функциональных копий.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd><italic>Aurelia aurita</italic></kwd><kwd>transposable elements</kwd><kwd><italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic></kwd><kwd>transposase</kwd><kwd>DNA transposons.</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd><italic>Aurelia aurita</italic></kwd><kwd>мобильные генетические элементы</kwd><kwd><italic>Tc1</italic>/<italic>mariner</italic></kwd><kwd>транспозаза</kwd><kwd>ДНК<italic>-</italic>транспозоны.</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>McClintock B.
