The epigenetics effects of transposable elements are genomic context dependent and not restricted to gene silencing in Drosophila

Abstract Background Transposable elements (TEs) represent a threat to genome integrity due to their proliferative capacity. Eukaryotic cells silence TEs through different molecular mechanisms, including the deposition of repressive histone marks. Previous studies have shown that TE repressive marks...
