Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Retrotransposons have been shown to contribute to evolution of both structure and regulation of protein coding genes. It has been postulated that the primary mechanism by which retrotransposons contribute to structural gene evolution is through insertion into an intron or a gene flanking region, and subsequent incorporation into an exon. RESULTS: We found that Long Terminal Repeat (LTR)...
