Widespread Exaptation of L1 Transposons for Transcription Factor Binding in Breast Cancer by Jiayue-Clara Jiang, Joseph A. Rothnagel, Kyle R. Upton

“…L1 transposons occupy 17% of the human genome and are widely exapted for the regulation of human genes, particularly in breast cancer, where we have previously shown abundant cancer-specific transcription factor (TF) binding sites within the L1PA2 subfamily. In the current study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of TF binding activities in primate-specific L1 subfamilies and identified pervasive exaptation events amongst these evolutionarily related L1 transposons. …”
