Alu elements contain many binding sites for transcription factors and may play a role in regulation of developmental processes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The human genome contains over one million Alu repeat elements whose distribution is not uniform. While metabolism-related genes were shown to be enriched with Alu, in structural genes Alu elements are under-represented. Such observa...
