Genomic DNA transposition induced by human PGBD5
2015-08-03
Abstract excerpt
Transposons are mobile genetic elements that are found in nearly all organisms, including humans. Mobilization of DNA transposons by transposase enzymes can cause genomic rearrangements, but our knowledge of human genes derived from transposases is limited. Here, we find that the protein encoded by human PGBD5 , the most evolutionarily conserved transposable element-derived gene in chordates, can induce stereotyp...
