TEITbase: a database for transposable element (TE)-initiated transcripts in human cancers

2025-05-23

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements (TEs) are abundant and play a crucial regulatory role in the human genome. Functioning as alternative promoters, TEs can be reactivated to produce TE-initiated transcripts. In cancer, TE-initiated transcription may upregulate oncogene expression and generate novel tumor-specific antigens, which could serve as potential targets for immunotherapy. However, there remains a lack of comprehensive...
