LINE-1 expression in cancer correlates with DNA damage response, copy number variation, and cell cycle progression

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Retrotransposons are genomic DNA sequences that are capable of copying themselves to new genomic locations via RNA intermediates; LINE-1 is the only retrotransposon that remains autonomous and active in the human genome. The mobility of LINE-1 is largely repressed in somatic tissues, but LINE-1 is active in many cancers. Recent studies using LINE-1 constructs indicate that host cells activate a...
