❓ If you identify all autonomous #TEs, you will automatically also have all non-coding derivates, right? Right?

Well, no! Not even close. Check out here, how much you are missing:

TEvarSim: A genome simulator for transposable element (TE) variants Author summary TEvarSim is the first all-in-one toolkit that generates transposable element (TE) variant-carrying genomes, sequencing reads, and VCF files, and directly compares simulated and predicted TE variants, providing a comprehensive solution for benchmarking TE detection and genotyping. It is the first simulator to incorporate real TE sequences, extract TEs from pangenome graphs, and introduce natural sequence variation across genomes, supporting biologically relevant TE research. TEvarSim is also the first to directly and automatically simulate both TE insertions and deletions, providing a better understanding of the full spectrum of TE polymorphisms. TEvarSim can rapidly simulate thousands of individual synthetic genomes containing TE variants.

TEvarSim introduces an integrated simulator for transposable element variants, enabling robust benchmarking and evaluation of TE detection tools across genomes. 🧬⚙️ #Bioinformatics #Genomics #TransposableElements

#TransposableElements altho abundant in the human genome, are repressed by methylation and chromatin modifications.

Here authors show another mechanism of repression; hierarchical chromatin topology (TADs) - when disrupted they can lead to co-option of LTRs as alternative promotors of #oncogenes!
