A SINE-VNTR-Alu at the LRIG2 locus is associated with proximal and distal gene expression in CRISPR and population models

Abstract SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) retrotransposons represent mobile regulatory elements that have the potential to influence the surrounding genome when they insert into a locus. Evolutionarily recent mobilisation has resulted in loci in the human genome where a given retrotransposon might be observed to...
