Impact of non-LTR retrotransposons in the differentiation and evolution of Anatomically Modern Humans

2017-10-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Transposable Elements are biologically important components of eukaryote genomes. In particular, non-LTR retrotransposons (N-LTRrs) extensively shaped the human genome throughout evolution. In this study, we compared retrotransposon insertions differentially present in the genomes of Anatomically Modern Humans, Neanderthals, Denisovans and Chimpanzees, in order to assess the possible impact of r...
