The effect of transposable elements on phenotypic variation: insights from plants to humans.

Science China. Life sciences - 1 Jan 2016

Wei Liya, Cao Xiaofeng

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements (TEs), originally discovered in maize as controlling elements, are the main components of most eukaryotic genomes. TEs have been regarded as deleterious genomic parasites due to their ability to undergo massive amplification. However, TEs can regulate gene expression and alter phenotypes. Also, emerging findings demonstrate that TEs can establish and rewire gene regulatory networks by...
