Does Selection against Transcriptional Interference Shape Retroelement-Free Regions in Mammalian Genomes?

BACKGROUND: Eukaryotic genomes are scattered with retroelements that proliferate through retrotransposition. Although retroelements make up around 40 percent of the human genome, large regions are found to be completely devoid of retroelements. This has been hypothesised to be a result of genomic re...
