Regulation of human trophoblast gene expression by endogenous retroviruses
2022-04-26
Abstract excerpt
The placenta is a fast-evolving organ with large morphological and histological differences across eutherians, but the genetic changes driving placental evolution have not been fully elucidated. Transposable elements, through their capacity to quickly generate genetic variation and affect host gene regulation, may have helped to define species-specific trophoblast gene expression programmes. Here, we assessed the...
