L1 Retrotransposons Are Transcriptionally Active in Hippocampus of Rat Brain
LINE1 (L1) is an autonomous, non-LTR retrotransposon and the L1 family of retrotransposons constitute around 17%, 20% and 23% in the human, mouse and rat genomes respectively. Under normal physiological conditions, the retroelements remain by and large transcriptionally silent but are activated in r...
