Abstract:LINE1/L1 transposons, comprising around 20% of the human genome, typically remain quiescent in healthy somatic cells but become activation in various cancer types. Our recent investigation reveals that p53 acts on L1 promoter to supress these repetitive sequences, potentially constituting a tumor suppressive pathway. In this study, we observe that p53 silences L1mRNA-cDNA hybrids (trans R-loops) formed during retrotransposition. We show that activation of L1 by HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) leads to the accumulation… Show more
