The diverse evolutionary histories of domesticated metaviral capsid genes in mammals

2023-09-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Selfish genetic elements and their remnants comprise at least half of the human genome. Active transposons duplicate by inserting copies at new sites in a host genome. Following insertion, transposons can acquire mutations that render them inactive; the accrual of additional mutations can render them unrecognizable over time. However, in rare instances, segments of transposons become useful for...
