Natural tolerance to transposition is associated with double-strand break repair and germ-cell differentiation

2021-04-30

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements (TE) are mobile genetic parasites whose unregulated activity in the germline causes DNA damage and sterility. While the regulation of TE mobilization by hosts is studied extensively, little is known about mechanisms that could allow germline cells to persist in the face of genotoxic stress imposed by active transposition. Such tolerance mechanisms are predicted to be beneficial when new TEs i...
