The Regulation of Retrotransposon LINE-1 and Its Function in Tumorigenesis
摘要
Abstract
Long Interspersed Nucleotide Element 1(LINE-1)is a jumping gene that accounts for about 17%of the human genome.LINE-1 translocates through the genome in a"copy-paste"way,using RNA as a medium.Generally,transposition activity of LINE-1 in cells is strictly reg-ulated.In tumor cells,LINE-1 is abnormally activated,affecting the stability of the genome in a Retrotransposon-dependent or non-dependent manner.The former can change the expression of target genes,cause chromatin rearrangement,or assist other transposons(e.g.SINEs,etc.)in transposition.The latter involves in a variety of activities through epigenetic modalities in can-cerous cells,such as the generation of endogenous regulator RNAs,LINE-1 chimeric transcrip-tion,or the supply of new shear sites or variable promoters to change the expression of adjacent genes.This article mainly introduces the composition of LINE-1 and its regulation of transposition activity,and discusses the function of LINE-1 transposition in tumors,in order to provide some references for the in-depth study of LINE-1,the mechanism of tumor formation and therapeutic exploration.关键词
