Abstract excerpt
Alus and B1s are short interspersed repeat elements (SINEs) indirectly derived from the 7SL RNA gene. While most researchers recognize that there exists extensive variability between individual elements, the extent of this variability has never been systematically tested. We examined all Alu elements over 200 nucleotides and all B1 elements over 100 nucleotides in the human and mouse genomes, and analyzed the...
