Variable patterns of retrotransposition in different HeLa strains provide mechanistic insights into SINE RNA mobilization processes
2024-05-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Alu elements are non-autonomous Short INterspersed Elements (SINEs) derived from the 7SL RNA gene that are present at over one million copies in human genomic DNA. Alu mobilizes by a mechanism known as retrotransposition, which requires the Long INterspersed Element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) ORF2 -encoded protein (ORF2p). Here, we demonstrate that HeLa strains differ in their capacity to support Alu...
