Contribution of unfixed transposable element insertions to human regulatory variation

2019-10-03

Abstract excerpt

Thousands of unfixed transposable element (TE) insertions segregate in the human population, but little is known about their impact on genome function. Recently, a few studies associated polymorphic TE insertions to mRNA levels of adjacent genes, but the biological significance of these associations, their replicability across cell types, and the mechanisms by which they may regulate genes remain largely unknown....
