Transposable elements are mobile genetic units that exhibit broad diversity in their structure
and transposition mechanisms. Transposable elements occupy a large fraction of many�…

Recent studies have uncovered myriad viral sequences that are integrated
or'endogenized'in the genomes of various eukaryotes. Surprisingly, it appears that not just�…

Transposable elements (TEs) are a prolific source of tightly regulated, biochemically active
non-coding elements, such as transcription factor-binding sites and non-coding RNAs. Many�…

The accelerating pace of genome sequencing throughout the tree of life is driving the need
for improved unsupervised annotation of genome components such as transposable�…

Advances in vertebrate genomics have uncovered thousands of loci encoding long
noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). While progress has been made in elucidating the regulatory�…

Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are abundant in mammalian genomes and contain
sequences modulating transcription. The impact of ERV propagation on the evolution of�…

Class 2, or DNA transposons, make up∼ 3% of the human genome, yet the evolutionary
history of these elements has been largely overlooked and remains poorly understood. Here�…

The control and coordination of eukaryotic gene expression rely on transcriptional and post-
transcriptional regulatory networks. Although progress has been made in mapping the�…

Transposable elements are the single largest component of the genetic material of most
eukaryotes. The recent availability of large quantities of genomic sequence has led to a shift�…

Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of eukaryotic genomes. However, the
extent of their impact on genome evolution, function, and disease remain a matter of intense�…
