Mammalian-wide interspersed repeat (MIR)-derived enhancers and the regulation of human gene expression

BACKGROUND: Mammalian-wide interspersed repeats (MIRs) are the most ancient family of transposable elements (TEs) in the human genome. The deep conservation of MIRs initially suggested the possibility that they had been exapted to play functional roles for their host genomes. MIRs also happen to be...
