#NotOnlyParasites! 2 Cell papers by @edchuong.bsky.social lab & Amigorena lab demonstrate that transposable elements #TEs can exonize giving rise to functional (often shorter) proteins with distinct functions: eg a decoy short IFNAR2 that inhibits #interferon signaling! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...
Transposable element exonization generates a reservoir of evolving and functional protein isoforms
Transposable element exonization by unannotated splicing events produces stable protein isoforms with acquired functions that are subject to evolutionary selection.

I'm so excited to announce that our story on LINE-1 DNA methylation has been published in @CellGenomics 🥳🥳

With @retrogenomics.bsky.social @aurelien-doucet.bsky.social and all other authors.

Enjoy the reading!
