Analysis of Transposon Interruptions Suggests Selection for L1 Elements on the X Chromosome
It has been hypothesised that the massive accumulation of L1 transposable elements on the X chromosome is due to their function in X inactivation, and that the accumulation of Alu elements near genes is adaptive. We tested the possible selective advantage of these two transposable element (TE) famil...
