Interplay between RNASEH2 and MOV10 controls LINE-1 retrotransposition
23 Dec 2017
Abstract excerpt
Long interspersed nuclear element 1 is an autonomous non-long terminal repeat retrotransposon that comprises ∼17% of the human genome. Its spontaneous retrotransposition and the accumulation of heritable L1 insertions can potentially result in genome instability and sporadic disorders. Moloney leukemia virus 10 homolog (MOV10), a putative RNA helicase, has been implicated in inhibiting L1 replication, although...
