Transposons are DNA sequences able to move or copy themselves to other genomic locations leading to insertional mutagenesis. Although transposon-derived sequences account for half of the human genome, most elements are no longer transposition competent. Moreover, transposons are normally repressed through epigenetic silencing in healthy adult tissu...
