Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> We explored genome-wide patterns of RT content surrounding lineage-specific gene family expansions in the human and mouse genomes. Our results suggest that the size of a gene family is an important predictor of the RT distribution in close proximity to the family members. The distribution differs considerably between the three most common RT classes (LINEs, LTRs and SINEs). LINEs and LTRs tend t...
