BOX elements can also cause gene disruption through insertion: a gene encoding a DNA alkylation repair protein is disrupted by a BOX insertion in all the available pneumococcal sequences, whilst an E1B1F1 element appears to have inserted into an acetyltransferase pseudogene in the sequenced S. suis genomes.
