Variation in base composition underlies functional and evolutionary divergence in non-LTR retrotransposons
BACKGROUND: Non-LTR retrotransposons often exhibit base composition that is markedly different from the nucleotide content of their host’s gene. For instance, the mammalian L1 element is AT-rich with a strong A bias on the positive strand, which results in a reduced transcription. It is plausible th...
