Expression dynamics and relations with nearby genes of rat transposable elements across 11 organs, 4 developmental stages and both sexes

Expression dynamics and relations with nearby genes of rat transposable elements across 11 organs, 4 developmental stages and both sexes

Abstract Background TEs pervade mammalian genomes. However, compared with mice, fewer studies have focused on the TE expression patterns in rat, particularly the comparisons across different organs, developmental stages and sexes. In addition, TEs can influence the expression of nearby genes. The te...
