Repetitive elements dynamics in cell identity programming, maintenance and disease.

Current opinion in cell biology - 1 Dec 2014

Bodega Beatrice, Orlando Valerio

Abstract excerpt

The days of 'junk DNA' seem to be over. The rapid progress of genomics technologies has been unveiling unexpected mechanisms by which repetitive DNA and in particular transposable elements (TEs) have evolved, becoming key issues in understanding genome structure and function. Indeed, rather than 'parasites', recent findings strongly suggest that TEs may have a positive function by contributing to tissue specific...
