Identification of a minimal <i>Alu</i> domain required for retrotransposition

2024-12-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Alu elements are primate-specific retrotransposon sequences that comprise ∼11% of human genomic DNA. Alu sequences contain an internal RNA polymerase III promoter and the resultant Alu RNA transcripts mobilize by a replicative process termed retrotransposition. Alu retrotransposition requires the Long INterspersed Element-1 (LINE-1) open reading frame 2-encoded protein (ORF2p). Current models...
