Expression Quantitative Trait Loci (eQTLs) Associated with Retrotransposons Demonstrate their Modulatory Effect on the Transcriptome
Transposable elements (TEs) are repetitive elements that belong to a variety of functional classes and have an important role in shaping genome evolution. Around 50% of the human genome contains TEs, and they have been termed the “dark matter” of the genome because relatively little is known about t...
