Genetic evidence that the non-homologous end-joining repair pathway is involved in LINE retrotransposition.

Genetic evidence that the non-homologous end-joining repair pathway is involved in LINE retrotransposition.

Long interspersed elements (LINEs) are transposable elements that proliferate within eukaryotic genomes, having a large impact on eukaryotic genome evolution. LINEs mobilize via a process called retrotransposition. Although the role of the LINE-encoded protein(s) in retrotransposition has been exten...
