Fixed and unstable I-related transposable elements in heterochromatin of Drosophila melanogaster.

abstract：:LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposons constitute the dominant category of transposons in mammalian genomes. L1 elements are active in the vast majority of mammals, and only a few cases of L1 extinction have been documented. The only possible case of extinction in primates was suggested for South American spider monkeys. Howeve...
