Genome-wide analysis of the association of transposable elements with gene regulation suggests that <i>Alu</i> elements have the largest overall regulatory impact

2017-05-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Nearly half of the human genome is made up of transposable elements (TEs) and there is evidence that TEs are involved in gene regulation. Here, we have integrated publicly available genomic, epigenetic and transcriptomic data to investigate this in a genome-wide manner. A bootstrapping statistical method was applied to minimize the confounder effects from different repeat types. Our results show...
