Abstract

LINEs are ubiquitous transposable elements of eukaryotes. Significant information has accumulated in the past year concerning the mechanism of transposition and the intermediates involved. In addition, progress has been made in the understanding of LINE structure and evolution, and several laboratories have exploited the interspersed, repetitive nature of LINEs for use in genome mapping.
