The coevolution between apobec3 and retrotransposons in primates

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Giorgia Modenini from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: The coevolution between APOBEC3 and retrotransposons in primates, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: Retrotransposons are endogenous genetic elements with the ability to move around in the genome, and because of their high mutagenic potential the majority of TEs have been faced with negative selection and are counteracted by numerous mechanisms.
  • future: These observations point towards an essential contribution of APOBECs as modulators of TEs expression across embryonic developmental trajectories although further studies are needed to elucidate the link between A3 proteins retrotransposons and . . .
