The tumor suppressor microRNA let-7 inhibits human LINE-1 retrotransposition
2020-06-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Nearly half of the human genome is made of transposable elements (TEs) whose activity continues to impact its structure and function. Among them, Long INterspersed Element class 1 (LINE-1 or L1) elements are the only autonomously active TEs in humans. L1s are expressed and mobilized in different cancers, generating mutagenic insertions that could affect malignancy. Tumor suppressor microRNAs are...
