Telomeres are DNA-protein complexes that cap and protect the ends of linear
chromosomes. In almost all species, telomeric DNA has a G/C strand bias, and the short …

Drosophila has been studied as a biological model for many years and many discoveries in
biology rely on this species. Research on transposable elements (TEs) is not an exception …

Essential, conserved cellular processes depend not only on essential, strictly conserved
proteins but also on essential proteins that evolve rapidly. To probe this poorly understood …

Coevolution between transposable elements (TEs) and their hosts can be antagonistic,
where TEs evolve to avoid silencing and the host responds by reestablishing TE …

Linear chromosomes shorten in every round of replication. In Drosophila, telomere‐
specialized long interspersed retrotransposable elements (LINEs) belonging to the jockey …

The de‐repression of transposable elements (TEs) in mammalian genomes is thought to
contribute to genome instability, inflammation, and ageing, yet is viewed as a cell …

Co-evolution between transposable elements (TEs) and their hosts can be antagonistic,
where TEs evolve to avoid silencing and the host responds by reestablishing TE …
