Reshaping the brain's genetic circuits
Mobilization of retrotransposons, genetic elements able to move around in the genome where they can become incorporated and start to amplify themselves, is normally suppressed in somatic cells. However, recent reports indicate that L1 retrotransposons can be mobilized in the human brain; this has important...
