Transposable elements in cancer as a by-product of stress-induced evolvability
Transposable elements (TEs) are ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes. Barbara McClintock’s famous notion of TEs acting as controlling elements modifying the genetic response of an organism upon exposure to stressful environments has since been solidly supported in a series of model organisms. This requi...
