Somatic LINE-1 retrotransposition in cortical neurons and non-brain tissues of Rett patients and healthy individuals

2018-12-31

Abstract excerpt

Mounting evidence supports that LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposition can occur postzygotically in healthy and diseased human tissues, contributing to genomic mosaicism in the brain and other somatic tissues of an individual. However, the genomic distribution of somatic L1Hs (Human-specific LINE-1) insertions and their potential impact on carrier cells remain unclear. Here, using a PCR-based targeted bulk sequencing appr...
