Transposable Elements in the Genome of Human Parasite <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i>: A Review
Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences able to transpose within the host genome and, consequently, influence the dynamics of evolution in the species. Among the possible effects, TEs insertions may alter the expression and coding patterns of genes, leading to genomic innovations. Gene-duplica...
