LINE-1 and Alu methylation signatures in autism spectrum disorder and their associations with the expression of autism-related genes

Abstract Long interspersed nucleotide element-1 (LINE-1) and Alu elements are retrotransposons whose abilities cause abnormal gene expression and genomic instability. Several studies have focused on DNA methylation profiling of gene regions, but the locus-specific methylation of LINE-1 and Alu eleme...
