Transposon Regulation in the <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> Germline and Soma

2025-10-10

Abstract excerpt

Transposons are parasitic nucleic acids present in most genomes. The ability of transposons to mobilize makes them a source of genetic diversity and a threat to genome integrity. Interestingly, mutations in the C. elegans gene mut-2/rde-3 increases the rate of transposition in the germline, but not in the soma, suggesting that the C. elegans germline and soma employ different strategies to regulate Tc1 transpo...
