| Re: Alu sequences Alu sequence (a million copies which are found in human genome)appear to preferentially integrate into sequence corresponding to another class of transposon called Line. Alu sequences are only seen in higher primates and as they have mutated over time, some may have acquired an ability to bind to hormones.As a result some of these elements may now play a role in modulating the expression of nearly genes. |
