Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile DNA sequences that have played a central role in shaping the human genome. Among them, LINE-1 (L1) elements are particularly relevant in cancer, as most reported somatic activity originates from them. ...
Retrotransposons as both "architects" and "saboteurs" in the nervous system [0.03%]
