Abstract excerpt

L1 (LINE-1), a long interspersed repetitive DNA family of mammalian genomes, is thought to be a sequence family derived from a retrotransposon-like element(s), but its actively transposable unit(s) has not been identified yet. We developed a novel method for selective isolation of the human L1 se...
