Key findings:
 1️⃣ L1s drive large-scale rearrangements including translocations (not just insertions) 
2️⃣ Frequency of these events was largely underestimated by short-reads
 3️⃣ They occur EARLY, thus potentially acting as drivers

A family of Tn7-like transposons evolved to target CRISPR repeats - Mobile DNA Tn7 family transposons are mobile genetic elements known for precise target site selection, with some co-opting CRISPR-Cas systems for RNA-guided transposition. We identified a novel group of Tn7-like...

Our preprint describing a family of Tn7-like transposons that evolved to target CRISPR repeats is now published at Mobile DNA #Tn7 #transposons #mobileDNA 1/10

An endogenous retroviral element co-opts an upstream regulatory sequence to achieve somatic expression and mobility Retrotransposons, multi-copy sequences that propagate via copy-and-paste mechanisms involving an RNA intermediate, occupy large portions of all eukaryotic genomes. A great majority of their manifold c...

Very interesting preprint from @ksiudeja.bsky.social and colleagues using long-read ONT sequencing to find somatic ERV insertions in fly, which do not seem to accumulate with age. I appreciated the detailed and thoughtful text. 1/3
