Sankey diagram illustrating the inferred functions of TE-proximal genes. The width of connections between each vertical block represents the gene count, delineating GO term classifications associated ...

The discovery in maize of jumping genes, also known as transposable elements, revolutionised our perception of genome organisation across kingdoms. Transposable elements are mobile small repetitive ...

This schematic illustrates how transposable elements, derived from functional RNAs or retroviruses, shape the human genome and act as regulatory DNA elements. It highlights their essential roles in ...

Heterochromatin, sometimes known as the “dark side of the genome,” is a poorly studied fraction of DNA that makes up about half of our genetic material. For more than 50 years scientists have puzzled ...
