DNA methylation enables transposable element-driven genome expansion
Multicellular eukaryotic genomes show enormous differences in size. A substantial part of this variation is due to the presence of transposable elements (TEs). They contribute significantly to a cell’s mass of DNA and have the potential to become involved in host gene control. We argue that the supp...
