Evolutionary insights from profiling LINE-1 activity at allelic resolution in a single human genome
2022-11-17
Abstract excerpt
Transposable elements including LINE-1 (Long INterspersed Element-1) impact genome variation, function, regulation, and disease. LINE-1s seem to have expanded as distinct consecutive lineages, but the drivers of lineage emergence and disappearance are unknown. Reference genomes provide a snapshot of LINE-1 evolution; however, the ongoing retrotransposition of LINE-1s in humans is not evident in these mosaic assemb...
