An ancient and still ongoing genetic conflict between transposable elements and their repressors
2024-12-23
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>. Transposable element (TE) mobilization poses a significant fitness challenge to host genomes. Consequently, a variety of systems have emerged to silence TE activity. Just like TEs, such systems are widespread across the tree of life and their evolution is expected to be shaped by intra-genomic conflicts. To test this hypothesis, we performed an evolutionary anal...
