Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Long Interspersed Nuclear Element-1 (LINE-1) is an autonomous retrotransposon that makes up a significant portion of the human genome, contributing to genetic diversity and genome evolution. LINE-1 encodes two proteins, ORF1p and ORF2p, both essential for successful retrotransposition. ORF2p has endonuclease and reverse transcription activity, while ORF1p binds RNA. Many copies of ORF1p assemble...
