''Blastopia'' belongs, along with other ''Ty3/Gypsy'' LTR retrotransposons, to ''Micropia/mdg3'' clade ([[Literature:46552|Malik and Eickbush 1999]]). The genomic structure of ''Blastopia'' is 5.4 Kb in size including LTRs of 277 nt. The internal region of this element displays a Primer Binding Site (PBS) complementary to tRNA&lt;sup&gt;Pro&lt;/sup&gt;, a single Open Reading Frame (ORF) coding for a gag-pol polyprotein, and a Polypurine Tract (PPT) adjacent to the 3&amp;acute;LTR ([[Literature:23397|Frommer, Schuh and Jackle 1994]]).<br /> |structure=Blastopia.png<br /> |host=Drosophila melanogaster<br /> |hostpic=Drosophila_melanogaster.gif<br /> |literature=<br /> *[[Literature:15303|Mobile DNA II.
