Exaptation of Transposable Elements into Novel Cis-Regulatory Elements: Is the Evidence Always Strong?

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic sequences that can jump around the genome from one location to another, behaving as genomic parasites. TEs have been particularly effective in colonizing mammalian genomes, and such heavy TE load is expected to have conditioned genome evolution. Indeed,...
